Hello! I am a Windows user and I have a lot of different data on my laptop some of which I cannot share with others since sometimes the privacy of my laptop may be compromised. So I have to hide a few folders from other users and only I know where they are. One of that folder contained some legal documents and I wanted to give those documents to my lawyer via USB. So initially I just sent him the main folder in which the sub folder was hidden but he could not find the sub folder and hence could not un hide it. So the next time, I revealed the sub folder and then gave it to him via USB. But even after that, he could not access the documents. Why is this happening? Do hidden folders from your computer become inaccessible from other computers forever?

I recently changed the hard disk on my HP Pavilion dv6 laptop as I needed more space. I created a recovery on an HP USB that has 16 GB storage space. I am trying to run the recovery but it gives an error 1005. I have tested my hard disk as well as the USB disk for the errors and have run memory tests on both of them. Tests came out good. What can be the problem? How can I succesfully run the recovery? Please help.

Why is my hard disk not accessible on my desktop computer? The desktop PC is selecting hard disk. Immediately after post test check, the computer is complaining of missing hard disk while the hard disk is on board. I have recently removed the hard disk and test it on another personal computer and it was working fine. Could it be that the hard disk is bad or another component of the system is at fault?
