There is a bug affecting Windows Vista that may prevent your computer from displaying the name of folders and files in Windows Explorer. Some people call it Easter egg, but I think that it does not have anything to do with it. If you are looking for a real Easter egg in Vista, click here. This bug or feature lets you hide the name of folders and files in Windows Explorer giving a more compact and tidy look to the whole window. To take advantage of this feature (or bug) read this trick:
- Click Start.
- Click Computer.
- Select your Hard Disk.
- Now press CTRL + SHIFT together, and click on the Views button a lot of times to quickly switch among the different views available to display the contents of the folder. At a certain point the folders’ name will disappear all of a sudden.
- To revert the process just continue to browse to other folders
If you computer is experiencing this issue the only solution which seems to work is to perform a disk check and turn off and on the computer. To perform a Disk Check and fix the issue, follow these steps:
- Click Start.
- Click Computer.
- Right click on your Hard Disk.
- Click Properties.
- Click the Error tab.
- Under Error-Checking click Check Now and tick the two options available.
