So, was it around the same time that Gman changed those settings that you
noticed those folders? There should be a lot more folders and files visible
now that you never saw before, especially in the user areas.
Well anyway, did you get the Drive F scan to stop? If not, does it say
anywhere that the drive is "dirty"? This happens sometimes when Windows
thinks there could be a problem with the drive (like when Windows was not
shut down properly or something). I think the problem is that sometimes
chkdsk does not clear the flag unless it fixes something, so this is a
problem if chkdsk does not find something to fix. If you can't read the
scan text before it gets cleared, then the best way to be sure is to click
Start, then Run, type CMD and hit Enter, then in the Command prompt that
opens up, type "chkntfs f:" (without the quotes). If that says the drive is
dirty, then there are ways to force it off (if you are sure the scans show
no problem with the drive).

Gman changed this to show the hidden folders and system folders last time we
connected by remote.
I forgot to mention that every time I shut down and re-start my computer it
runs a file check on Drive F(my storage file). Never comes up with anything
but wants to do it every time. I let it do its thing and then my screen
comes up as usual.
It is just puzzling.
