I have a question about How do I disable the warning message when I view the Windows folder?:

I believe I have finally removed the "Show Files" link. However, your instructions stated "Close Explorer". What does that mean? A friend of mine, a Mensan computer geek, was not sure. Please explain.

it sounds like they mean the explorer window, not windows explorer (the gui).

Here is a simple way, Copy folder.htt out of your c:\windows\web directory, Paste it in your c:\windows directory.., or you can simply set your explorer to View All Files and delete desktop.ini out of your c:\windows\ folder but this will rid your windows folder of web view completely.. The Folder.htt file will more than likely be hidden..., In your explorer (the box that the files show up in) at the top, Click View, then Folder Options.. (some versions were a little different, like Tools Folder options) Click the View tab, and select the Show All Files circle like button...
