  • do you know how to make a hidden folder not just a invisible one?

  • @jroach34 I think you have it mixed up a hidden folder is what is in this tutorial, an invisible folder is when you use terminal to hide the folder. If you want to see how to do that subscribe to my channel or just keep checking because I will try to post a video within 24 hours. Also visit nicoplyleydotcom to make video suggestions!

  • How do I change my invisible folder back to normal folder?

  • @lwr4ever 2/2 opps not right left hand corner of the screen and copy the image, then paste it in the same place on the hidden folder picture that is see through. If you dont understand that I can explain in simpler terms if you need, but if you do mean invisible folder where you use terminal to hid the folder just comment back and this and I will tell you how to undo it.

  • Hey Guyz Just Sub me And Yeah Cool Vid

  • yes i figured out how to hide a folder using terminal, instead of making it invisible on the desktop

  • @MegaFlaxseed Yes you can press command a or file>select all then the delete key then enter, but on some of the older versions of Mac OS X it doesn't let you do it with that method so thats why I show it this way.

  • @NicoTheTechGuy Thanks very much !! it help a lot ^^

  • @lwr4ever Well invisible folder and a hidden folder are two different things, but assuming you mean hidden folder like this video describes, you would need to make a new folder and move the content in the hidden folder to that folder, or you can select a folder (not the hidden one) and right click by pressing control then clicking on the folder, then press get info or you can just hit command i. You need to also do this to your hidden folder. They click the folder icon in the top right hand..1/2
