About this tag
The unhide tag on WindowsForum.com covers issues related to making hidden files, folders, partitions, or drives visible again in Windows. Common topics include using Diskpart to unhide partitions without changing their type, recovering files that became hidden after accidental property changes, and dealing with system files that remain locked from unhiding. Users also discuss persistent problems where drives automatically hide on restart, requiring third-party tools like Easeus Partition Master. Additionally, the tag includes scenarios involving folder lock software that hides personal folders and the need to automate unhiding or relocking during Windows shutdown. Troubleshooting hidden icons and start menu items due to malware or disabled services is another recurring theme.
