How to open /etc/ folder in Explorer, Windows?
 
As the title says, I need to open the /etc/ folder in my n900. I need to find a config file that edits the application I Am Here. Therefore i need to gain access to that folder.

Thanks in advance

Use ssh with WinSCP, many tutorials on the internet on how to do that.

Be careful with the line endings when editing files with Windows. Don't use Notepad ;)

AFAIK WinSCP has its own editor built in :)

Editing of imhere-0.3 rings some bells:rolleyes:
Well if you just want to get rid of the crashing version this might be helpful:

install leafpad and use that instead, probably better.
