Hi,

When you first install Windows XP, the very first time you access the Windows folder, you get the daft message that "these files are hidden", and you have to click "show the contents of this folder".

Is there a reg hack or something to stop this silly message, and just show the contents of the Windows folder?

Cheers,

Gray

try this 
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"WebViewBarricade"=dword:00000001
