Please turn off you CAPS lock when posting (it makes it much easier to read).

Are you using a double density disk (Amigas can't read HDs unless you get a HD disk drive).

Also if you are viewing the disk on the Amiga the files will be hidden unless you select 'Show All files' from the menu

AFAIK there is no need to tape over the hole in order to format it as a DD (unless maybe you are formatting it in a HD drive, but even so - you are usually given an option to choose the format). Also if you need to tape over the hole, you would need to do it before formatting.

I think the guy wants to transfer some stuff from his PC, so I think taping the hole is correct
