LindaLov :
User folder disappeared and I couldn't uncheck "hide" for the second step in the process! What do I do now?
I just had the same issue. It's because the folder is "empty" and it's set to hide empty folders. Type the file path c:\users (I think I got an error message that said "folder is empty"!) - ignore. Go to Tools, Folder Options, View (tab), Under files and folders there's a sub-folder "Hidden Files and Folders" click "Show hidden files, folders and drives" -BAM!
I've been following the instructions for:
Simple instructions:
Navigate to c:\ and right click on the file marked "Users." Select "properties." Under the "General" tab, look at the bottom for the selection that says "Hidden." If there is not a check mark in the box, place a check mark there. Hit "apply", a pop-up window should come up, select "yes" to apply to all subdirectories. It might take a minute to make the change, so just give it a minute to finish.
After it finishes, right-click on the "Users" file again. This time remove the check mark and click "Ok" to apply to all sub-directories again. Once it has finished, your files in the "Users" directory should be good to go, and Catalyst Control Center should function normally again. Hopefully this works for you as well...[/quote
Hope that helped! Happy hunting!
