> "Show Hidden Files and Folders" not working?

By this meathod you can see hidden files & folders...
  • Click “Start” -> “Run…” (or press Windows key + R)
  • Type “regedit” and click “Ok”.
  • Find the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows \CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SHOWALL
  • Look at the “CheckedValue” key… This should be a DWORD key. If it isn’t, delete the key.
  • Create a new key called “CheckedValue” as a DWORD (hexadecimal) with a value of 1.
  • The “Show hidden files & folders” check box should now work normally. Enjoy! :)
