    In windows Vista 32bit, I had a folder that contained all the downloaded video files and all this are the Divx files. Now when I try to locate this files then it will be gives the hidden file format. This is the problematic and hence, I can’t able to access these hidden files on this hard disk. I now have no idea how to seem this hidden files but I want to access this hidden files. Is there any person experience about it, and then please share your own experience. Thanks in advance.

    Sometimes it happen due to Divx file being scanned before it is complete. Hence this divx files has been shows as a hidden files. For solving this problem you need to try to re-scan the folder. This is to be necessary in this hard disk and it will be capable to solve this hidden files problem. The other way is to be the remove and also re-add the folder onto the system.

    First you need to locate the directory where the files are being saved and then just try to enable this folder options to display its full path. This will be help to access hidden files when you try to open save box. Yes, is happen and you can able to access the hidden divx files present on this folder of the hard disk. If you can’t able to search the location of file then use the search the hidden files using search engine of the vista. You can use *.mpg, *.mpeg, or *.avi for this search process.

    You need to use different strategy and it is first right click on your browser video and pick Save video as. Then provide the name of video & save it to specific directory. Then you need to right click on browser video & again select save video. Then you need to pulls up the window to save it. This will be help to check the directory you saved the video file. Then open in divx player and in that select file and the open containing folder. Then open dialog box will show the true folder your file was saved. Then remember this location of folder and put this divx file onto selected location.

    Most of the time we need to use the special command of the windows explorer and try to solve this problem. This will be work and in the result, you can able to solve the particular problem in this system. The attrib command is one of that type of command. It will be set the parameter as well as the options of the files and folder present on the hard disk. Then you need to just use this command on the run window with /t or /s option. It shows the hidden files of the hard disk.
