File Hider/Unhider Plus

Hidden files, whether concealed by your system or certain programs can be both a lifesaver and a problem, depending on the situation encountered. File Hider/Unhider is a handy tool that deals with all your files, whether visible or hidden, allows you to change their status accordingly. In order to properly work, the application requires .Net Framework installed on your computer.

The application works with visible and hidden files, the latter presenting both advantages and disadvantages. For instance, files that are hidden by your system cannot be normally accessed and modified, thus allowing inexperienced users to use a computer without accidentally damaging it. On top of that, you can also hide files to keep them secured from prying eyes.

The drawback of hidden files can be seen when other applications create specific files and hide them. These occupy disk memory and cannot be found or deleted after you uninstall the program that created them, for instance. This is where File Hider/Unhider kicks in, helping you unveil any hidden file on your computer.

The program offers you a way to see hidden files, then change their status to visible, or vice versa. It can work with USB disk drives, by scanning them for hidden files.

This is a highly useful feature, because some files are kept invisible on certain USB drives, even if you format them. Normally, you can only detect their presence, as they occupy a certain amount of disk space. Using File Hider/Unhider, you can also unveil and delete them, freeing drive memory.

To sum it up, File Hider/Unhider is ideal for revealing all the files from your computer or USB drives, then switch their status to visible or hidden accordingly.
