Hidden folders not visible (even with the option ticked)

Post by MerleOne »

Hi,
Since a few versions, I don't see any longer some hidden folder (.sync folders created by ResilioSync Home), even when I select the options "show hidden files/folders". If I type the full path,
D:\Users\<my username>\Downloads\Sync-Home-Downloads\.sync\
in XYPlorer explorer bar, I can enter it but if I go one lever up, it's nowhere to be seen. A few months ago it worked fined.
Is this a known issue, is there a setting I am missing ?
Thanks.

Marco

Oops, I found the use of the Ghost Filter in the help file. I must have tried it and forgotten then...
Many thanks !
