Why am I unable to search for the folder which I know is present (in Vista)?

Or... what exactly is this "Compatibility Files" folder icon doing in my Windows Explorer??

Jerry's Blog explains this stuff beautifully!

So, why am I blogging about this?

Well... to cut the long story short, I have lost almost 3 hours yesterday searching for some files/folders to fix an issue with one of my software which had a corrupted cache folder. The support professionals asked me to delete some specific folder along with a couple of files, and I was not able to find them... no matter how much I searched. In the end, when I clicked on Compatibility Files, I found that the address bar changed as follows... and the files were right there! Honestly, it felt as if those files were giving that mocking smile at me !!

Thought you should know...

Until next time
