when you're in the folder with the files goto tools then folder options.



then goto the view tab



then in the list you'll see "show hidden files and folders" click the button next to it and hit apply

Go into the drive there in and then go to your menu and select Tools then Folder Options and then look through the options until you see "show hidden files and folders" and select that box and then apply it





You should be able to see your pics

you might of erased them when you reinstalled windows if this is on a another drive you might want to try to reclaim owernship of the drive do this by right clicking the drive going to properties click the security tab then click advanced then click owners tab place a check in the box to replace owner and click apply after that you should be able to access the pics if not yah you deleted them when you uninstalled

If you reinstalled windows, most likely the hard drive was reformatted. If that's the case, everything on the hard drive is gone. You can't get them back.

go to a folder, click tools, folder options, view, and select show hidden files and folders

Depending on what you did during your install process, you may have wiped the E: drive. If that's the case, your pictures are gone.



Sorry, but you'll have to re-download all that porn. ;) (Why else would you hide photos?)
