FIXING BROKEN FOLDER OPTION.


Fix a broken Folder Options. 

Some viruses and other malware will modify your Windows registry, causing the displaying of hidden files to not work properly. You may see both the "Show" and "Hide" options selected when you open the Folder Options window, or your settings may get reset every time you close the window. To fix this:[1]
  • Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box, or select it from the Start menu.
  • Type regedit and press Enter
  • Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SHOWALL. Use the directory tree in the left frame to move between folders.
  • Find the "CheckedValue" key. It should be REG_DWORD format. If the format is something else, delete it.
  • Right-click and create a new "DWORD (32-bit) Value" called "CheckedValue". If you already have a "CheckedValue" key, ensure that it is REG_DWORD format and set to "1".
  • Set the Value Data field of the new "CheckValue" key to 1.
  • Run a virus scan. If this has happened to your system, there's a good chance that your computer is infected, which could cause the problem to appear again.

Airi was the ship to board and it was the last ship to make its passenger run through this route, Marou bay to Haununu Area before the 25th of December. Things have been little crappy for me.
