Windows 7 AppData folder showing in Explorer

[intwtl]

Hello,

My AppData folder is showing up in explorer even though I have the "don't show hidden files, folders, or drives" checked.

Any suggestions to fix this problem is appreciated.

Thanks

OK, apologies...

I had my head up my a.. and somehow had unchecked the "Hidden" box when I had the folder open to re-arrange the programs in the start menu.

It's okay, we all have those moments! It's great that you figured out the issue. Checking and unchecking the "Hidden" box can definitely affect whether certain folders, like the AppData folder, are visible in File Explorer.
If you ever encounter this issue again or have any other Windows-related questions, feel free to ask!
