Shift + Right click, choose "Open Command Window here"

The command you want is "attrib -h /d /s"

Surely would be better doing opening cmd (start > cmd)

Typing the letter name then attrib -s -h *.* /S /D

so it does it to the whole drive rather than the specific folder/file


edit; nvm my stupidity it's late :( unless you want to unhide every file/folder :p

Youl just run attrib -s /s on full hard drive to disable the greyed out hidden though.

might take a while though! I ran attrib with /s /d on a large directory (~200GB, 225k files) and it took nearly forty minutes! :p
 
What I would do..

Create 'Disney2' folder, go in to the folder, cut the files and paste them into the new one. Then 'unhide' all the files. Delete the original

Surely it would copy the properties of the items across, so the unhide would still be able until you attrib -s /s it?

Ok, here's one . . . but not about folders :p

Snow White saw Pinocchio walking through the woods so she ran up behind him, knocked him flat on his back, and then sat on his face crying,

"Lie to me! Lie to me!"
