Hello in the windows explorer i can show the INetCashe folder only by copy and paste it´s path into the navigation-line, but it does not appear in the tree-view and also not, if i go one layer out.

It´s still hidden, while "show hidden objects" is activated.

How do i make it appear on theese views?

    Hi Drachenbauer

    the INetCache folder is a protected system folder, in order to make it visible you would need to display all protected system folders.

    in file explorer navigate to the C:\Users"name"\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\ folder,

    click the ellipsis in the icon bar at the top of the window and select options

    in the options window

    select the view tab

    in the Advanced Settings box, uncheck "hide protected operating systemfiles (recommended)"

    click apply and ok.

    the protected folders, including INetCache, should now be visible.
