0How to Show Hidden Files and Folders in Windows 10
Hidden files are usually hidden for a good reason—they're typically critical files, and hidden from view makes them harder to change or delete.
You may need to see these files because you're dealing with a Windows problem, and you need access to one of these important files to edit or delete. Of course, if hidden files are showing but you want to hide them, it's just a matter of reversing the setting.

By default, Microsoft Windows 10 hides certain files from view when you explore them on your hard drive. This protects important files from being deleted so that the system isn’t damaged. If you’re the geeky type, you’ll want to be able to view all files all the time. Follow these steps to show hidden files.
