Most of the time, after a virus infection the option "show hidden files" cannot be shown.
when you check the option "show hidden files" after clicking "Apply" and "OK", you cannot see these hidden files.
the problem is because of some values at the registry base which the virus infection changed.
Here is the real solution for it
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
matetika rehefa tratran'ny virus tato hoato dia tratran'io problème io koa.
na dia afaka aza ilay virus dia tsy mety miverina ny option "afficher les fichiers cachés"
na dia ovana ilay option dia miverina hoazy eo amin'ilay option "ne pas afficher les fichiers et dossiers cachés" ilay izy.
ity ary no fika famerenana azy …
Let's go:
1° – update your antivirus – scan and clean your computer
2° – after that, if the "show hidden files" option doesn't work, you have to change some values at the registry base
3° – click on "start" – "run" – type "regedit" and click "OK"
4° – now, you can see the registry base:
go at:
HKEY_Local_Machine\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\EXPLORER\ADVANCED\FOLDER\HIDDEN\SHOWALL
change the values to:
CheckedValue=1
DefaultValue=0
then go at:
HKEY_Local_Machine\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\EXPLORER\ADVANCED\FOLDER\HIDDEN\NOHIDDEN
change the values to:
CheckedValue=0
DefaultValue=0
5° – close it and restart your computer and that's it
