@Binith215 The issue with your try is that you put a space before the second *. Remove that and all should be fine

use ls -h

You put a space before the second asterisk (*). Remove the space and try again.

To view hidden files/folders:

Go to your command prompt and type:
ls - h (for windows)
ls -a (for MAC)

This will display, all the hidden files in that particular folder.

Use powershell or open cmd as administrator

Hey guys, instead of telling what to modify or what to delete, just copy & paste this
attrib -s -h -r /s /d .
discard if it said Access Is Denied it's for System Volume information that we have no business in it
good luck..
