I think it's deleted by the virus
After I check the correct registry and add them back, all hidden files show again
I paste the registry below, hopefully it's useful for someone

My friends,

I had same problem and followed above steps but in my regedit registry there is
Hidden\Showall entry but it has no entry called CheckedValue. I changed the
default value to 1 but that did not help.

Problem:
1. Cant see hidden files and no 2nd choice shows up in file options to set it to show
2. The fix below doesnt work cause there was no CheckedValue field under Showall

Solution if you dont have CheckedValue entry:
1. Simply add the new entry carefully with same name as DWord entry under \Showall
2. Then set to one as above.
3. Then go to file folder options and now you can see 2nd choice to show hidden files
4. Now click on the 2nd choice to show hidden files and click apply.

Thank you to the original wizard who figured this out.
