File explorer doesn't show drive letters for certain folders

When I do a search using XP's search feature , say for files over 50 mbs (or
whatever lenght), it brings up several folders that does not have a drive
letter associated with it. For example, I have one folder on there that
instead of listing it as c:\vbshowcase\file.txt it lists it as
vbshowcase\file.txt . I can right click on the file name and 'open containing
folder' and it displays. However, I have no idea where these files are
located on the hard drive.

I've manually went through the drive using windows explorer, but I can't see
it. I've drive searching through dos, but still can't find it.

I didn't see an option to upload an image, so I posted a jpg file here

http://www.dickenson411.com/error.jpg that shows what I'm talking about.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks


I don't know what to do.

See the both pictures. I think this could be because of Compress Folder. The
files which have no path in search result they all are inside the Compress
Zip Folder or file.

In the second picture, you can have a guess where that zip folder or file
reside by click on the Address bar.

Hope this help, let us know!
