    hey guys wondering if any of you can help me,

    I got a new laptop first time I'd been using vista and I've made one of the folders on my desktop invisible not sure how to make it visible anyone able to guide me through it?

    I'm sure on XP I use to be able to go to the tools -.options and there was on option called show invisible folders can't see to find it here.

    And before any one joking asks yes i was trying to hide the porn :p

    when you have any folder open press the alt key on the keyboard and the tools menu will appear where you would expect it too.

    For other users though.

    Right click on the folder and select Share/Sharing Options
