    Hello

    In Windows 7, the AllUsers folder is not a real file.

    It is a symbolic link that redirects to the C:\ProgramData folder.

    ProgramData is not hidden, by default.

    The correct syntax for the Attrib command would be,

    C:\>attrib h ProgramData

    You can view all files by going to the tab options\View Organize\Folder and research.

    In the section files and hidden files , place a check mark in the Show drives, folders and hidden files.
