HOW TO MAKE VISIBLE USERS FOLDERS IN WINDOWS 10

 To make users' folders visible in Windows 10, follow these steps:

1. Use File Explorer to Access Folders

  • Open File Explorer: Press Win + E.
  • Navigate to Users Folder: Go to C:\Users.
  • You'll see the folders for each user account on the system (e.g., Default, Public, and any specific user accounts).

2. Unhide Hidden Files and Folders

Some system folders may be hidden. To reveal them:

  • Open File Explorer.
  • Go to the View tab at the top.
  • Check the box for Hidden items under the "Show/hide" section.

3. Check Folder Permissions

If you can't see specific folders for a user:

  • Right-click the folder and select Properties.
  • Go to the Security tab.
  • Check whether your account has Read or Full Control permissions. If not:
    1. Click Edit.
    2. Add your user account and give it the required permissions.

4. Unhide System-Protected Folders (if needed)

Some folders may be protected by the system. To unhide these:

  • Open Control Panel.
  • Go to Appearance and Personalization > File Explorer Options.
  • Switch to the View tab.
  • Under Advanced settings, uncheck Hide protected operating system files (Recommended).
  • Click OK (you may get a warning; confirm it).

Note: Be cautious when unchecking this option. Protected system files are hidden to prevent accidental modification or deletion.

5. Access a Specific User's Folder as Admin

If you're trying to access another user's folder and it's restricted:

  • You might need administrative privileges.
  • Right-click the folder and select Properties > Security to modify permissions as an administrator.

Let me know if you encounter any issues during this process!
