Yes,how to do it? whenever i check "show hidden files and folders",the system vol. information folder in C: shows up,even though i haven't unchecked "Hide protected OS files". Any help?
What attributes do you want to change? It is a system folder mind you... one wrong move and everything goes kaput
I advice against it....
Nah, files in SVI are perfectly safe to delete. Go to any drive, right click SVI, click properties. In sharing tab, Tick whatever box is available and click okay. Repeat on all drives. Now you can delete the files inside. If you cant, restart the comp, and now you can.
Yet another query:
The SVI folder in C: can be opened.But when i double-click the same folder(SVI) in other drives, i get an error "Access is Denied". Is something wrong?
There's nothing wrong. Just right click on the SVI folder, click on "Properties" and go to the "Security" tab. Click on "Add". Enter your user name. Click on OK twice. You'll now be able to open that folder.

Do what I said for SVI in all drives.
Open windows explorer go to Tools->Folder Option->View and check the last one use simple file sharing(Recommended).
And after that right click on System Volume Information to change its attributes
