Greetings,
Try this:
1.Click start>>run>>type in "cmd"
2.Type the location of your external drive.. e.g. "d:", "e:", "f:", etc..
3.Type "dir /ah"
You will now see the files/folders with hidden attributes
4.Type "attrib [name of file/folder] -r -a -s -h"
*Iif you're going to unhide files, you should type the whole name plus the extension (format).. example "attrib party.jpg -r -a -s -h"
*Iif you have folders with 6 characters and above, type the first 6 characters then "~1".. example for folder named "birthday"
"attrib birthd~1 -r -a -s -h"
5.You should repeatedly type dir /ah after unhiding some files/folders so you'll know if they're now working or not..
6.Now check you flash drive.. it should be there..
Good Luck
