Are you using vista?

Yes using vista.... But they showed before 6.1 so why would that make a difference? Anyway to change the setting?

Make sure you are able to view System hidden folder. Believe its under tools and viewing options. Just make sure hide system folders is unchecked.

On the phone or Vista Computer... I can't find setting in either place. I'm on the "my computer" on vista and the phone I searched all settings to view hidden files... I can see it under total commander, but when viewed from Vista, those files are hidden.
With WM6.0 they were not hidden.... weird... Has to be a tweak to change this..

put the card in your pc and load the card's content. right click on the my documents folder and see its properties. see if it is marked as Hidden. if it is, unmark it.

you can also goto your computer window folder option and mark show hidden items.

Also in file explorer on your ppc hit menu and check show all files.

Where's /windows folder?

Hello,
I'm having a hard time locating the \windows folder to change the audio for my alarm clock? When the device is connected via ActiveSync, the folder should be
"HTC Touch Pro" \windows correct? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
EDIT: The only folder I see are Application Data, ConnMgr, My Documents, Documents and Settings and Program Files.

It defaults you to "\My Documents" not "\". You need to go "Up" a level.
Moved to TP general.
EDIT: (Seen as though you edited )
In Windows (not mobile) do you have Show hidden files / folders turned on?

The windows file on my TP is hidden so I have to unhide the hidden files and folders in Explorer on my PC first. Then it is where you said it should be.

Nice little sharing tip!

I was wondering how to share folders from surface to pc. I know you can use homegroup but I just like setting the folders I want. As well I hated when I went on my desktop and under network the surface is there but you can not gain access. So this trick will let you.. It opens up the "share" tab under properties on the folders when right clicking. Here ya go.
Quick to enable file sharing on Windows 8 RT (Surface):
1. Open the desktop mode
2. Open Explorer
3. Right click on "Computer" and choose "Manage"
4. Expand "Services and Applications"
5. Select "Services"
6. Find the "Server" service and double click it to open.
7. Change the Startup type to "Automatic" or "Automatic (Delayed Start)
8. Click "OK"
9. Right click on the Server service and choose "Start"
You can then make shares as if on a normal Windows 8 PC. This also seems to give Libraries the option to share as well.

thanks for sharing
