How to identify all hidden files or folders on a system (Windows only)

Most common (though not the safest) method to keep secret various personal files (Or not) is that concealment them. How can we hide a file (or even an entire folder)? Very simple, accessing its properties (right-click on the file / folder> Properties) And checking the box to the right Hidden (Bottom of window). To then view hidden filesWe need to access Folder Options (In XP we click on Tools in Bar menus in My Computer, In Vista si 7 we click on Organize in ), Then in tab View select Show hidden filets, folders or drives.

But what they do not keep in mind the "corner" of hdd I hid those files? Or when we become curious about any other hidden files users access to the computer (and I am sure that most have this curiosity from time to time ...: D). Take the hand each existing folder would take time, which is a serious problem when time just missing us.

Find Hidden is a portable application (Requires no installation) created in order to help users in such cases. It identify all the files (or folders) hidden in a directory, search can be made according to several key criteria:

  • file type
