build specification of installer hides already spec. destination

I have an installer build specification with the following problem with the "source files" dialog:
I select the exe build spec to be installed into a certain dest. dir (e.g. under program files). After doing so i close the dialog with ok. The next time i open the dialog this information seems to be gone, in the dest. view no folder has subfolders or other files below it. But if i repeat my steps from the first time, trying to install the exe into the same dir under program files, i get this error message:"The following files already exist in the destination directory:...". But i can't see them!

Any ideas?

This is Labview 2009 on Vista.

Perhaps they were written (somehow) as hidden files.

This way, if you browse to that location, you will not see them.

But if you try to save something with the same name, the computer will know the files are there.
