Instructions

     Select "Show hidden files and folders" from the Advanced Settings options and click on the "Apply" button. Click the "Apply to Folders" button, then click "OK."

     If the "Show hidden files and folders" option is not enabled, the hidden folder will not be visible; this will prevent completion of the following steps.

     Right-click on the hidden folder and select "Properties."
   • 6
     Deselect the "Hidden" attribute on the Folder Properties dialog window, then click "OK" to confirm the selection. The folder is no longer hidden.
