2. the reason why u see blue names its becase its compressed in NTFS. the pros of compressed files in NTFS file system is that u get to access the file faster by 10%. COns: when u want to write something on the file, its 10% slower.
if u want to make the blue names to white,
1. u can right click the file
2. click properties
3. click "advance" button
4. uncheck "compress contents to save disk space"
if evey file name in the folder is blue color, u can change it all by just changing the folder setting(above method).. it will prompt u whether u want to change the sub folders and files or not. -
ok thanks for clearing my doubts...

The blue coloured file names is because of encrypted files, not compressed files. It only occurs in NTFS because NTFS allows encryption.Originally posted by manyu882:1. the codec use to render the file is bad. you can try other media player codecs.. likfe one suggested.

To demonstrate this effect, open My Computer.
Go to Tools > Folder Options.
Select the View tab.
Untick this box: Show encrypted or compressed NTFS files in colour.
Click OK. Close My Computer and open it again. Go to C:\Windows and look at your files, it won't be coloured in blue.
Reverse it, the files will be in blue again. -
