Windows 10: Weird numbered folders in C: directory that do not exist in Windows Explorer

This is with Windows Backup Windows 7 in Control Panel. There's folders called "Backup files [number]" which is normal. [Normal numbered folders] https://i.stack.imgur.com/XD8jQ.pngHowever, in those folders, namely files 52 and 53, there are folders numbered 1 - 295 [Not very normal numbered folders 1][2] https://i.stack.imgur.com/0Wkxb.png[Not very normal numbered folders 2][3] https://i.stack.imgur.com/FWmwv.pngIn those folders contain Gradle files.

A weird Windows Explorer problem.

Okay, that's weird.

I had Windows Explorer open to the folder containing the missing folders.

The folders weren't visible.

I closed the Windows Explorer window.

Through the command window I changed directory until I got to the directory with the missing folders, but the folder were visible.

I ran dir /A and it listed the folders.

When I reopened Windows Explorer the missing folders were now visible.

I thought that dir /A only listed the attributes...... does it do something else that I'm not aware of?

 

Directory Size Utility

First of all nice utility, Mindweaver!
Second of all, it's so nice to see that this section ain't dead.

I have a few questions/suggestions, maybe you'd want to see ...

• maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that?
  
• Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs)
  
• maybe you also add export list to excel?
  
• there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too?
  
• and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories?

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
