  1. Recovering Hidden Files


    I am trying to recover hidden files from a USB Drive using CMD, but I am getting an invalid use warning. I am running Windows 10.


    I have used: ATTRIB -h -r -s/s/d c:-users-john


    If someone can assist, I would be grateful.


    Best regards John.


    Do you mean doing the first ATTRIB c:\users and waiting for it to finish then do the second ATTRIB c:\users\john

    or

    type in both together and then wait for it finishing.

    :)

  4. Recovering Hidden Files

    All hidden files turned Un-hidden

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community and being part of Windows 10.

    I suggest you to re-add them to the hidden items list and check.

    Steps:

    • Right click on the folders to hide, select Properties.
    • Go to General tab, under Attributes check mark the option
      Hidden.
    • Click on Apply and on Ok.

    I suggest you not to use any third party anti-virus software. Try to use Windows Defender.

    Refer: Using Windows Defender

    Hope it helps. Feel free to contact us for further assistance on Windows Operating System, we will be happy to help you.

    Hidden files: There's a method for hiding files in Windows. Not using the "system" or hidden attribute, but something else, which escape me now. It's a bit cumbersome (for me) to use it but I have. I read where Microsoft uses this method when downloading files (uses or used in the past)....
