    Can't see hidden folders in Explorer


    The option to view hidden Files and Folders in Explorer Options, has both "Don't Show Hidden Files..." and "Show Hidden Files..." unchecked. If I try to check the "Show Hidden Files..." option, and hit the Apply button, I still can't see folders such as AppData and Program Data. Close and reopen the Options window and the 2 options again both unchecked. I tried checking the Show Hidden Items under View, and this has no effect.I've done a virus scan, using BitDefender and nothing was detected. I went into the registry and looked at the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVer

    :)

    Hidden folders

    I installed `Kane and Lynch` on my PC twice in Program Files(x86) folder but I can`t find them (2 folders with game). But free space on my HDD is lower. So there`re those folders on my hdd. I use option `unhide` hidden folders but still can`t find them. Any suggestions? How can i delete those hidden folders?

    When I run istallation for this game I can see those folders in Program Files(x86) folde.

    I`m using Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
