This is it.


Here is the VBScript you can use for the purpose:

Message = "To work correctly, the script will close" & vbCR
Message = Message & "and restart the Windows Explorer shell." & vbCR
Message = Message & "This will not harm your system." & vbCR & vbCR
Message = Message & "Continue?"



X = MsgBox(Message, vbYesNo, "Notice")


If X = 6 Then


On Error Resume Next


On Error Resume Next


Dim WSHShell, n, p, itemtype, MyBox


Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")



p = "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Hidden"


itemtype = "REG_DWORD"


n = WSHShell.RegRead (p)


errnum = Err.Number


if errnum <> 1 then


WSHShell.RegWrite p, 2, itemtype


End If



If n = 2 Then


   WshShell.RegWrite p, 1, itemtype


   MyBox = MsgBox("Show Hidden Files and Folders are now ENABLED", 64, "Hidden Files and Folders")
End If


If n = 1 Then 


   WshShell.Regwrite p, 2, itemtype


   MyBox = MsgBox("Show Hidden Files and Folders are now DISABLED", 64, "Hidden Files and Folders")
End If



Set WshShell = Nothing



On Error GoTo 0

For Each Process in GetObject("winmgmts:"). _
ExecQuery ("select * from Win32_Process where name='explorer.exe'")
   Process.terminate(0)
Next

MsgBox "Finished." & vbcr & vbcr , 4096, "Done"

Else 

MsgBox "No changes were made to your system." & vbcr & vbcr, 4096, "User Cancelled"



End If
 

Copy and paste the VBScript above and Save it as "Enable-Disable-Hidden-Files-Visibility.vbs" using Notepad/Wordpad whichever you like.
