Rockbox folder disappear

[JoChn]

Hey, I have a problem 'cause on my player I can't see the .rockbox folder, and none of the themes is working. Even I can't enter to the "base skin" option. I've checked on Windows, but this folder isn't hidden... Any idea, what is going on?

Any file starting with "." is hidden.  Set rockbox to show hidden folders.

Ok. Thanks
Done. Hmmm, very stange... I've been looking for that option and I can't find it. Again thanks.

"Show files".

Besides, I can also imagine that you have filesystem errors which can result in all kind of strange behaviour. Do you safely eject the player before unplugging the USB cable from the PC?

[JoChn]

Well, honestly... I've never use safe eject, because I've never had problems with that

Probably a good idea to check the disk for errors and then copy a new .rockbox folder over.  Depending on how your operating system handles USB MSC devices, pulling out the player without unmounting/ejecting may or may not end well.

I've done the check disk, because my player has got strange behavior... A lot of "data abort" errors, freezez etc. But one thing is very interesting... If i don't see the .rockbox folder (by the showing all files) why the "base skin" doesn't working and what even more, Cabbie theme works properly:/
