easy hide or unhide folder

4 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/easy-hide-or-unhide-folder.72780/

Anyways i can do that?

You know sometimes you need to Unhide the folders... and sometimes you need to Hide them

The usual way is to go to "tools" than select "folder properties" and then bla bla bla

But is there not a "shortcut method" or maybe a small application or "reg-file" with which i can just click on it and the files will "hide and unhide".. without the need of any clicks !!!

Thanks... i hope my query made sense
