| 160947 | 2003-07-19 00:05:00 | Hi Can anyone help, when i open a folder and look in the bottom corner it might say i have 40 objects in the folder, But when i right click and choose properties it might say i have 50 files in the folder?? I have enabled viewing of hidden folders but there are still only forty ?? It does this on many of my folders, Why the discrepancy? I don't have any viruses. |

| 160949 | 2003-07-19 00:21:00 | It is only counting the number of folders and files within that folder, not within the sub-folders. If you wish to see the entire contents of a folder, including the contents of its sub-folders go to the Properties and it will tell you in there. | tommy (2826) | ||
| 160950 | 2003-07-19 04:56:00 | Hi, i see what you mean, But its not that, Say if i go to My Documents/My music/ and highlight that folder it will say i have 100 objects in folder, there are no sub folders in it, only mp3s, But when i open the folder, and right click and select propertys, it will day there are 112 files in it?? It does this on most folders, | iron-zeus (3479) | ||
| 160951 | 2003-07-19 05:01:00 | Hi, It only seems to do it on folders in.. MY DOCUMENTS, How do i enable viewing of system files? Then i could see if that's where the discrepancy lies, maybe there are hidden system files in them? | iron-zeus (3479) | ||
| 160952 | 2003-07-19 05:15:00 | Open a folder and go Tools-folder options-view and untick the "hide files and folders" box. | Pheonix (280) | ||
| 160953 | 2003-07-19 07:22:00 | ;) tried that , It doesn't produce any more files or folders | iron-zeus (3479) | ||
