    I cant open a Folder


    Hi, I'm unable to open a folder, I get the following message;
    "my docs is not accessible, The file or directory is corrupt and unreadable".
    I cant delete the folder but yet I can rename. When I hover over the folder it shows empty, but when i look at properties it shows it has 7 sub-folders.
    I can open other folders and save documents

    I'm not worried about saving the info as i have a back-up.
    The path is, C:\users\ Davy Edwards\Documents\my docs.
    I'm using Windows 10 version 1909

    :)

    Opening a Folder in VC++

    I've recently started learning VC++ and it's coming along quite nicley, I've now been given a little task by my boss to add a button to an excisting Incident report program.

    All the button needs to do is open a new explorer window and open the folder selected in the incident report program. There isn't a deadline for it, it's just to assist in my learning.

    I'm not asking for anyone to do it for me, i just need a few suggestions on how to do this so i'm looking in the correct direction?

    Thanks
