since it is not working from here anyway, guess I should "hide" them again so I dont accidentally mess up something? How do I go about that?

Open "My Computer" click on "Tools" then "Folder Options", then click the tab labeled "View" and make sure "Do Not Show hidden files and folders" is checked or ticked. Click the "Apply" button, then click "OK" and you'll see hidden files and folders disappear.

I am turning laptop back on to try this, turned off due to other error that said try restarting computer....


Anyway, another annoying thing is McAfee can not be fully uninstalled, since it also has AVG on the compuer and they fight with each other and a message comes up everytime I boot the computer that some components of Active Shiled are either missing or might not have been installed properly. well, duh, they were supposed to be removed, but it wont let me do that. Is there a work around for this?

But I did a print screen of both instructions in case I need it again...Thanks for your help tonight, I really appreciate it.
