Show hidden files and folders

Help & Support Operating System
1

I’ve just tried the latest CE nightly and I’m impressed but there doesn’t seem to be an option to display hidden files and folders (files with a dot prefix) in the file manager? Kodi has an option to show hidden files and folders.

Maybe I need to install an Add on or do I need to open a feature request for this?

Thanks

First go to Kodi/Settings/Media and in the bottom of left column press twice on cogwheel to change from “Normal” to “Expert” mode. Then in same window on the left row choose “General” . On the right pane you’ll see options to Show hidden files and directories, and Allow file renaming and deletion. Select both for total file control…

Thanks Sholander!

I hadn’t tried clicking on the cogwheel on the Media Settings page which is why it was evading me.
