  1. Downloads Folder


    My Downloads folder is no longer displaying Word files I have downloaded. After poking around for a few days I *think* the folder is not displaying items which are "Protected View" but I can not find a setting button to disable this behavior. I'll download a lot of files for work and then go back to them later, having to open each one to disable Protected View as I go is less than ideal.

    :)

    Unable to delete a folder - Invalid folder name


    Suggestion:
    1. Run chkdsk x: /r to make sure that there's no HD corruption.
      x: is the drive containing the folder you want to delete.
    2. Try to delete the folder again. If still does not work, go to step 3.
    3. Download: Download - Linux Mint and create a bootable USB using: Rufus - Create bootable USB
    4. Boot up with Linux Mint and try to delete the folder again.
      NOTE: Unlike WinPE. Linux does not have any Windows permission imposed to it so it is easier to delete.
