    Default Hiding File (System32)

    I was editing with gimp and after I saved my work, it turned out that for some odd reason Gimp saved it in my System32 map.
    Even weirder is the fact that I can't find the file in there, It shows up when open up a file in gimp, but when I try to delete the file from the map I can't find it.
    (I have ''Show hidden files'' on)

    Maybe it is classified as a system file which is something unexpected. If by chance it is so then you need to enable those files also, it's below the hidden files check box in the folder options.

    That option was already enabled, but still no sign of the file.

    Ok i see then your last resort is Command Prompt. In command prompt go to that directory and open the file from it if you know the name, if you don't then search in Cmd-Prompt using its extension, you should know that could be .jpg, .png etc for the image.

    Go to that path that is:
    Code:
    C:\Windows\System32
    After that type:
    Code:
    dir *.jpg /s
    If that's the extension of your image. It will display it and then simply move the file from that place to any of your desired folder.
