Um first of all, this is a computer tech issue, not a mapping assistance. Second of all, to fix the problem, go to a folder, click tools, click view tab, your'll see advanced settings, if you see a folder icon, look at hidden files and folders, click show hidden files and folders.

I hate lamossssssssss.
But you don't need to send them all to hell, people...
^^^^ Sorry, just emotions, dont take it personally. ^^^^
If your mouse is set up to "left-handed", switch "left" and "right" buttons in the instructions below:
1. Click Start button with left mouse button
Start menu should open
2. Now click Programs with left mouse button, unless you're using windows 95
(if you do, I suggest Start->find->files&folders, enter any of folder names in start->programs menu)
Programs menu should open
3. Click any folder with -->right<-- button
A context menu should appear
4. Click "open"
Windows explorer will show that folder's contents
5. Press "Backspace" on your keyboard (it's located above ENTER and sometimes shown as "<---" (not one of 4 cursor-movement buttons)
The upper level folder should appear.
6. Enable showing hidden folders, if you didn't, as described in above posts.
Starcraft "cloaked" folder should show up.
7. Right-click on this and select "properties"
8. Uncheck "hidden"
9. Click Ok
10. If asked, select "Apply to all subfolders"
You're done. In case of win95 you might need to reboot.
By the way, I NEVER use Start button, and don't even know, are there any of my mapping tools there.
