penfold Posted September 24, 2014 Posted September 24, 2014 I'm migrating some files from one server to another and I've created a folder which I have shared and I can access it if I browse to the share. However, if I go to the folder on the server the folder doesn't appear. I've checked for hidden files etc and permissions (I used a robocopy script so I hadn't manually set them) and when I do a dir from command line it doesn't appear in the list. If I look at the shares on the server the folder is listed and gives me the directory I should find it in. Any ideas how I can get to access the folder? I was tempted to delete the folder and start again, but I'm not sure I can delete it properly if I can't see it:confused:
penfold Posted September 25, 2014 Author Posted September 25, 2014 OK, feel a little plonker now. I turned on System files and I could see the folder and it was also showing as hidden. I couldn't change it through the folder properties but managed to do it through the command line using attrib -s -h and it is now showing again. Not sure why I didn't think to check this earlier as when I looked at the folder on the original server I could see the properties where system & hidden:getmecoat:
