  1. Windows folder showing incorrectly as a video folder

    I haven't done this yet because it's still rattling around in my mind on where the problem lies. The folder with the video icon (DATA) is showing on all of my connected Windows computers with the video icon. So the thought occurred that your suggestion shouldn't work because of that fact...
