I swear my computer finds something new to frustrate me with every week. Lol. Anyway, I use Bitcomet a lot to share torrent files, and I have the download folder as a shortcut on my desktop. So whenever I want to open one of the files I have downloaded, I click on the 'download' folder shortcut on my desktop, and then click on the 'view compatibility files' option at the top of the folder and all my downloaded files appear.
Ok so I've been doing this for years, I even did it this morning. So wierdly, I just open the "download" folder and the "view compatibility files" button had completely disappeared!! I can't see my files! It says the folder is empty. I rebooted and it hasn't made a difference. I havent done anything strange with the computer, I haven't fiddled around with the settings or anything, and I have no idea how to get that button back or how to access my files now!

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
