Hello,

I habe local Administrator Rights on this Windows Server 2003,
Terminal Server.
There is a local drive F: which contains quite a few subfolders and
files, also a folder called temp.


When I navigate to this folder (f:\temp) then the right pane is
completely empty.
However when I specify a subfolder of f:\temp directly (f:\temp\ksd) I
can see its files.
This is also true at the commandline:

F:\Temp>dir
Volume in drive F is SMUC0001_F_W2003
Volume Serial Number is D06E-605A

Directory of F:\Temp

20.07.2007 11:27 <DIR> .
File Not Found

F:\Temp>cd ksd

F:\Temp\ksd>dir
Volume in drive F is SMUC0001_F_W2003
Volume Serial Number is D06E-605A

Directory of F:\Temp\ksd

24.11.2006 17:19 <DIR> .
24.11.2006 17:19 <DIR> ..
24.11.2006 17:19 <DIR> FileInterface
12.06.2007 11:25 <DIR> IN
12.06.2007 11:25 <DIR> OUT
27.10.2006 15:29 162.165 TY01.DAT
1 File(s) 162.165 bytes
5 Dir(s) 50.109.042.688 bytes free

F:\Temp\ksd>

I never had this occur in any of my windows servers. It is very
strange.
Would somebody know advice?

Actually, I feel Microsoft should fix it since this is a major error
in its major operating system

Sincerely
Andreas
 
I know this sounds obvious but I have to ask, are the folders set to hidden?
You could check with the "attrib" when in the folder at a command prompt. Or
change your settings in folder options to allow viewing of hidden files and
folders.

regards,
Brian
