"Show hidden files/folders" in Folder options doesnt help much,you must
also uncheck the boxes "Hide extensions" & "Hide protected OS",w/o those
two,the other by itself doesnt get you anywhere.

To display hidden files and folders

1.. Open Folder Options in Control Panel.
a.. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
b.. Double-click Folder Options
.
2.. On the View tab, under Hidden files and folders, click Show hidden
files and folders.
Notes

a.. Hidden files and folders will appear dimmed to indicate they are not
typical items. Usually, hidden files are program or system files that should
not be deleted or changed. To display other hidden files, clear the Hide
protected operating system files (Recommended) check box.
b.. If you know the name of a hidden file or folder, you can search for
it. For more information, click Related Topics.
c.. If you want to see all file name extensions, clear the Hide file
extensions for known file types check box.
