    You can view the contents of a folder (including hidden ones) with: dir /A H. Or go to Control Panel > Folder Options. Click on the 2nd tab, and check 'view hidden files and folders'. Click on OK. Now go can browse to that folder with Windows Explorer. All hidden files and folders should be visible now.
