Double click on (Default). 4) Change the Value data to "attrib -h "%1"" . Only change here would be an extra pair of double quotes for %1. 5) Repeat the steps from 2 to 4 for Unhide File and the location is "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Unhide File\Command". 6) This can be done by making the changes to .reg files as well, but for some reason it didnt work for me , so i decided to do it manually. Hope it works for others Hey guys,
