    Weird Locked/Hidden Folders


    Don't know the cause of it but i use BitLord to download random stuff anyways the Downloads Folder Shows up like this : Now when i open Nero up it shows this Weird thing is if i hover over the folder from normal window it says the Downloads folder is only 800mb (as it is only showing me one item) yet from Nero it says the folder is over 9 Gigs. Im set as Owner of the folder and i have all permissions set for me however i am still unable to see these files outside of nero and i don't know why.

    When i go and try to change the permisions on the folders (the locked ones) windows says the files/folders doesnt exsist...

    The folders/files in question are in "C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore" because you do not have permission to write to that folder in Program Files. Move the download location that BitLord uses to some place in your User folder, like: "C:\Users\[username]\Downloads" That is the purpose for why it exists.
