Hidden files???

Hello! I have a big problem that I'm hoping someone can help me with. I did
a defragment the other day and now I can't find some of my files. I did a
search for one and it came up "hidden". How can I get these files back to
where they should be? I also can't see "My Pictures" in the "My Documents"
folder...it doesn't appear anymore, but when you look at my picture it says
that is where they are? Does any of this make sence?
Please help!!! I'm clueless.
Thanks a million in advance!
Jen

The attribute may have erroneously been reset.


In Windows explorer

go up to tools, folder options. view


now enable viewing of hidden files


when you open "My Documents" you should now see "My Pictures"

Right click ...look at properties

then uncheck "hidden"

You can then go back to your folder options and reset to disable viewing
hidden files if you wish.
