Program Files problem

[carapau]

Hi everyone, this is my first post here at this forum
So i came in with a problem at program files folder, it is occult and i can't uncheck the it at the small square, here's a Screenshot

I've been googled till now and i got a topic from Mikaka here at SevenForum, i read it but i didn't understood it very well
And i was wondering if you guys could help me out with this, because this is really annoying

Hello Carapau,

You can run this command below in a elevated command prompt to remove the hidden folder attribute from the C:\Program Files folder.

attrib -h "C:\Program Files" /s /d


Hope this helps,
Shawn

Ty Brink, i'm going to try it out
And sorry for the wrong section post

Meh i did like you said but it says that the format of the parameter is incorrect

Try this (again from an http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/783-elevated-command-prompt.html):

attrib -h "C:\Program Files" /s /d

 

[carapau]

I got this message: "O ficheiro de sistema - C:\Program Files não será reposto" which is something like "The file system file - C:\Program Files will not be reinstated"

 

[Brink]

Carapau,

Are you using the command in a elevated (right click and run as administrator) command prompt?

 

[Dwarf]

Here is what I get from this command:



You might like to try both the commands in turn.

 

[carapau]

Brink, yes i did it in a elevated mode.
Here's the ss of what i get:

That's what i got before as i said in my last post, it's in portuguese but it's something like "The file system file - C:\Program Files will not be reinstated"

Umm, strange. Well, since it just happened, you can also do a system restore using a restore point dated before this happened to undo it.

 

[carapau]

Oh i got it finally.
I did it in another way
Here's what i typed in cmd: attrib -s -h "c:\Program Files"

Anyway thanks a lot

Ah ok. It was set with a system file attribute as well. I'm happy to hear that you got it sorted.
