So, i used a external program to hide a folder of my choise. But the program crashed after a few days and i couldn´t find a way to get it to work. So now is the question, does anyone(anybody?) know any way to "unhide" the files. My antivirus were able to find the hidden files, whic were reported "hidden".

um, can you do the "show hidden files" option in explorer under Tools > Folder Options > View or is that silly?

Hmm.. Never had to use one of these programs. Never had to hide porn. ;)

Hmm... Can't really think what to do honestly. I suppose the 'Show Hidden Files and Folders' option works (as mentioned above) - If not, you'll need to run dos (bootup, hit F8 - More access than standard command prompt) and delete it through CMD =<

Tried a reinistall of the program?

Its probably some sort of shady unlinking going on, in which case you are pretty much owned unless you can get the program working again.

You could try using a program like getdataback for NTFS that will find deleted files, and your folder sounds like is qualifies as deleted by now.
