If you are using Microsoft Windows and you want to view hidden files and folders on your computer, you simply need to configure your Windows Explorer. Start Windows Explorer then click “Tools” and then “Folder Options.” On the next screen, go to “View” tab then select “Show hidden files and folders” under “Hidden files and folders” section.

Show hidden files and folders

Click “OK” then you should be able to see hidden files and folders. This will only allow you to view normal files and folders that were hidden. Protected operating system files are still hidden. Now, if you want to hide a particular file or folder, simply right-click the file or folder and select “Properties.”

On the next screen, in “General” tab, check “Hidden” at the bottom and then click “OK.” This will hide the file or folder.

To unhide the file or folder, just repeat the same steps and uncheck “Hidden” to unhide the file or folder then click “OK.”
