Question
I have a problem in windows xp, Some office files are stored in my directory and i hide the folder. My system settings have changed and I am unable to fin the FOLDER OPTIONS.

Answer
There is no feature in Windows XP that enable you to hide the Folder Option from Tools menu. Usually this is caused by a computer virus or worm. I suggest you scan your computer with an up-to-date antivirus program. If the problem still insist, then edit the registry:

Go to start>run, type regedit, and hit enter. Then find the following key:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesExplorer]On the right panel, double click on the value NoFolderOptions. Then change 1 to 0. And exit the registry
