    Some Text is Blue?

    Many of my files and folders within My Documents have had their names/titles to turn blue?

    Not the end of the world, but I would like to know why and solve the problem.


    Thanks,

    Jeff

    It is probably because they have been compressed. If you used the disk cleanup option, and selected the option to compress old files, there is your answer...

    You were correct Ya Know!

    Changed the setting to NOT show compressed files to reestore the view to what I am used to.

    Thanks,
