Detail

Hidden Files reveals normally hidden files or folders directly in Finder. You can also mark your own selected files, folders or applications as hidden or visible by using a new Finder menu entry.
A file or folder that is hidden, won't be visible in Finder but will still be accessible by your system and applications.
You can view all the files you have hidden in the History window. From the history window, you can open hidden files and folders, even run hidden applications. You can also make hidden files visible to Finder again. The History window can be password protected.
