Hi,

Is it safe to set all the ntuser.dat files with the hidden attribute?
I have a bunch of them, and would prefer to get them out of the view
of the home directory.

Thanks!

On my system it is already marked that way. Do you have the options to show
hidden and/or system files set? If so turn them off, should resolve your
issue.

Ok, I may have mistakenly changed that setting a while ago, then. I
thought these files are typically hidden.

Thanks!
