I accidentally made a folder of pictures hidden, and now I can view them in
My Pictures, but I can't get them to come up in Adobe or Zoombrowser. Does
anyone know how to change a hidden folder back to a normal, viewable (in all
programs) folder?

Right click the folder in Explorer, select properties, general tab, untick
hidden near the botton, click OK.

I did that, but when the properties window comes up, the hidden box isn't
checked, but the file is hidden.
