Hide: I went to my documents and I had this issue, and I clicked on something that is called HIDE and I don't know how to get to this file now!

I went to my documents and I had this issue, and I clicked on something that is called HIDE and I don't know how to get to this file now! Anyone know where are the hidden files?

Go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / view and check the box to show the hidden files and folders and uncheck to hide extensions of known file types.  Only the first is required for this problem, but the other may be useful later and you might as well do it while you're already here.

Now, you will be able to see the folder.  It will be in the same place, it has always been (it has not been assigned) - it was just hidden and now that you can see hidden files and folders you can see again.  You may notice that it deteriorated a little bit lighter that other records - it is a sign that it is a hidden file or folder.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!
