Showing Hidden File Error

Sometimes Hidden Files does not shows in Windows due to Virus.

As soon as you change the option "Show hidden files and folders", it changes to "Do not show hidden files and folders" in Windows Folder Option.

Most of the case it happens due to Virus.

The solution is very easy.

Just copy the red colored texts in Windows clipboard.
Open Notepad.

Paste the Texts in Notepad.

Save the Notepad.

Rename the Notepad's Extention name as .reg instead of .txt 

Right Click on the .reg file and Click Merge. Or Double Click on the .reg file.
Then Click Yes.

After that Click OK.

Now the problem is solved.
