    Making Changes To Folders


    I occasionally need to rename or move a folder but get an error saying a file or folder is open which must be closed before renaming or moving can continue. Often there are dozens or hundreds of files or folders and I am unable to find the one causing the error. Is there any way to speed up the search for open files? Sometimes I check all possible software and can find nothing open that may be causing the error.Is there a shortcut to determine which file/folder is causing the error?Thanks

    :)

    How to make a Uber Hidden Folder

    • Make a new folder.
    • Change the icon to a blank icon. No icon should appear
    • Rename the folder to a blank by pressing "alt + 255." (NOTE: Press 255 on the numpad) No text should appear.
    • Your done! It is uber hidden. *Big Grin Making Changes To Folders :D
