RO>Question: is there an easy, one-step way to look at, gain access   
   RO>to, modify, move, etc.  any and all files on a Win7 setup.   
      
   RO>With a WinXP setup, I can just go to Explorer/by merely going to   
   RO>Explorer/Tools/View and checking boxes or unchecking boxes. But so   
   RO>far with Win7, I seem to be limited to going thru a lot of hoops   
   RO>just to access any one folder.   
      
   I am not a Win 7 user but found this on the internet.   
   In case no win 7 guru speaks up give it a try.

   Windows operating systems have got a lot of secrets, more than you   
   think. In fact, there are some files and folders which, by default, are   
   hidden and concealed for security reasons. If you want to be able to see   
   what Windows (XP, Vista and 7) try to take away from your eyes, here is   
   a simple trick for you. Be-aware! These hidden files and folders are   
   invisible for your own safety! So, do not mess up with them!   
      
      1. Click the Windows Explorer folder.   
      2. Click the Organize link located on the upper left side of its   
      toolbar.   
      3. Click  Folder Search Options.   
      4. Cick the View Tab.   
      5. Under Advanced Settings, click Show hidden files, folders, or   
      drives.   
      6. Click OK!
