I have the same problem as David's. I have clicked the "show hidden files and folders" and then click Apply button but doesn't take any effect. When I open the Folder Options box again, the radio button still points to "Do not show hidden files and folders". Even when I unchecked the "Hide extensions for known file types" and "Hide protected operating system files", it did not work. Need help here...

Help!

Hi! I have several folders hidden in my computer, i followed the steps bellow, but just can't unclick "do not show hidden files and folders", it just doesn't let me do that. I entered the folder options in mode "run as administrator", but still doesn't work. Any idea? Thanks.

might be worth mentioning... IF you go into control panel but you cannot see the icon "folder options".. then you should click on "classic view" text on the left... this will reveal the folder options icon amongst others..

This was useful to me, but for the opposite reason. I was trying to turn off the viewing of hidden files. People who are reading this, this article is very informative, but just don't bother with hidden files. They're annoying, trust me, and there's a reason they're hidden. Tampering with them at all can crash your entire system, I know from experience.

This really helped!

Or on the left side click "Classic View" and then look for "Folder Option" Once again.
