Are you logged on with Admin rights??, If you have two accounts I.E. User and Admin, just log on as Admin and you should be able to view those files.

this is because of corrupted filed while installing. Don't waste your time:just format the drive and reinstall(using the repair option) the os.
best of luck

I know you have probably tried this, but in Folder options try resetting to the Defaults, Then tick show hidden files again.
