I'm not a windows person, but I can't help thinking they cant be found because they are hidden. .......Why are they hidden ... From my Windows days I recall that hidden files were strange things you never needed to look at <and a little curious>

Default Hidden Files

Guys

Windows hidden files are "hidden" for a very good reason, they interact with various system files to make windows work. If you start messing about with hidden files, and you don't know what you are doing, you could render your PC system inoperable, which could/will lead to a full windows reinstallation.

Leave "hidden" files alone.



UK Bob

Do these files work ... can you play them? are they in a normal video format? I just don't understand why they are hidden.

Ok I wasn't trying or expecting to pry that out of you

Are you sure they are not being shared?

If you go to direct connect and type in your own ip number you should be able to see to view your share. You might have to try a few times, but it usually works.
You may see your hidden files, but perhaps if they are hidden in your computer they will also be hidden on Limewire so .....
