Hidden File Problem

Most of my friends have this problem,they are saying that, whenever he selected the radio button “Show hidden files and folders”, and then press Ok .. the changes wouldn't take place. they even tried some of best known
anti-virus. but it will only remove virus but leave this problem behind.
So, today i am posting some of the method i know, to solve these problem.

1st method:-

the first method is very simple. just use this software. file size only 160KB and 544KB
download it here

another software is also very effective. just follow the instruction. file size 544KB
restore your Windows settings and your show hidden files and folders will be set to default.
download it here




2nd Method:-

Start–>Run–>Regedit–>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\

CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SHOWALL

–>Find a key called CheckedValue in the right side.
–> Double Click CheckedValue key and modify it to 1.



3rd method:-

1. Click “Start” -> “Run…” (or press Windows key + R)
2. Type “regedit” and click “Ok”.
3. Find the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SHOWALL
4. Look at the “CheckedValue” key… This should be a DWORD key. If it isn’t, delete the key.
5. Create a new key called “CheckedValue” as a DWORD (hexadecimal) with a value of 1.
6. The “Show hidden files & folders” check box should now work normally.
