Answer» A friend told me I could creat files in dos system, while could not open in microsoft system. Any one know the exact steps? Well, first off, you are running XP. There us no DOS in XP. There is the COMMAND prompt however, and I shall continue. Go to the command prompt as you normally WOULD, and type in ATTRIB /? You can still access files if they have the SYSTEM and HIDDEN attributes, but it is hard (for skiddies who think they are computer hackers, or someone computer illiterate). the correct syntax would be "attrib filename +h" or to unhide, do -h Quote from: Zeriously on October 08, 2009, 11:42:30 AM the correct syntax would be "attrib filename +h" or to unhide, do -h A lot of PEOPLE can view hidden files through folder options. Most people can't view system files (+s) because a message box pops up to ask if they're sure and system files are important BLABLABLA and they click no. System/hidden files show up FINE for me in explorer with no prompt of any form. It is only specific folders that show that prompt; I believe it is a desktop.ini setting for that folder.When you try to change the option of viewing the system files from the reccomended option, it does prompt you not to do it.
