Hello DEAR all!!

I wish u will be fine and doing well.

First i want to say that my English is not good if there be any mistake in my writing, forgive me please.

I use Windows XP SP2

My computer was infected by a virus and my all folders became Super Hidden and also task Manager, Folder Option, Regedit and some other options was disabled by this virus.I removed the virus using kaspersky Antivirus v.7.0.119 and I also recovered approximately all of my folders using the following Attrib code:

attrib -s -h -r [drive] [folder]
attrib -s -h -r d:\Farahmand

But the problem which I have is this that whenever I want to recover My Document folder using this attrib code, it cant be recovered! I write the attrib code as following:

attrib -s -h -r C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents

After I type this code in Cmd and and press Enter button it gives the following message:

Parameter format not correct -

If there is any special attrib code for recovering/enabling the My Document folder from Super Hidden, please write it to me.

Help me please!

I think the solution will be SIMPLE ... you see the My Documents folder name contains spaces.

To allow this you must put quotes around the folder name, LIKE this :

attrib -s -h -r "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents"

This should work

GrahamHello friend!

Sorry for comming late.I had some problem and I couldn't come and see the Topic.

Thanks for ur ANSWER!

It worked and I recovered My Documents folder.

but I have another question:

We must use qoutes for every folder which has spaces on their name?

Thank you so much.
