FreeCommander Forum

MS Office's OneDrive creates a folder called OneDriveTemp in the root directory of the drive where your OneDrive folder is located. You can delete it but it reappears whenever One Drive starts.

The folder's attribute is 'Hidden' I have FC (XE 2017 Build 740 64-bit donor) set to not show system or hidden files and yet it is always visible in the left hand pane but, curiously, not the right hand one. It is not visible at all in Explorer.

If I set FC to show hidden files/folders then it does appear in the right hand pane.

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or whether this might be a bug. In any event, I really do not want to see that folder at all so I wonder if it's possible to really make it hidden?

FreeCommander has two possible view settings for hidden/system-files/folders:

one for the tree: settings > tree > management: show hidden folders
one for the file/folder list: settings > file/folder list > general: show hidden files (&folders) & show system files (&folders)

Brilliant - many thanks - woo hoo!

The thread you pointed to hadn't come up in the searches I'd tried so my apologies for going over old ground. Like that contributor, though, as well as hiding the specific folder that I mentioned, I'd also like to see the hidden folder
C:\Users\<username>\AppData
and its subfolders as I use them quite a lot.

The solution came to me in one of those 'lightbulb moments'. If it helps someone else, then simply unhide the AppData folder. You just have to run a command prompt as Admin and use
attrib -h C:\Users\<username>\AppData

It's always a relief to find a solution to really irritating issues, so my day is now complete
