Windows File Checker

Windows XP SP3, IE-7, OE6

 

Hello,

 

When running "SFC /SCANNOW" by Start>Run> sfc /scannow > Enter, should "Show

hidden files & folders" be checked? Also, should "Hide protected operating

system files (Recommended) be un-ticked? Or does it matter one way or the

other?

 

TIA

FYI, just tried Start;Run;sfc /scannow and it did indeed start right

up checking file revs, which seems logical. The OP isn't very clear but

I think the ticks he mentioned were probably in viewing files not sfc.

And the answer to that is still same as someone said; doesn't matter.
