File Count Different
"Brian Krontz" wrote in message
... Thank you. While that may make sense to some, I'm staring at 21 files and the Folder Properties say 20. I'm under the impression that there must be an explanation. I have cases where Windows Explorer states that file are non-zero length, but Properties shows 0 length. If you have such files, you can read them using http://www.standards.com/index.html?ReadFile. Using the program to read the files, the files are not zero length. So, Windows Explorer and Properties clearly use different Windows APIs to do their job. |

File Count Different

It would be one thing if the directory properties said more (ie: hidden file), but when they say LESS than the visual count... I start to get worried. Do any of the files have the System or Hidden properties checked. Could be that some counting methods do not include those files, depending on the options you have chosen. He's comparing a VISUAL count against what Explorer counts... and that visual count is larger READING is a skill. READ what I wrote and stop wasting our time. LOL. |
