You mean "Hidden files and folders" I think. If so, open "Folder Options" in either the Control Panel or Windows Explorer. Then left click the "View" Tab and:
First, place a green dot in the box next to "Show hidden files and folders".
Second, remove the green dot from "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)". Here you will receive a warning [grumble box] which you must answer correctly to view these files.

These files are hidden for a good reason. Leave them alone until you find out more about your operating system.
Another way to hide files is with a hidden partition. If you have one, the above is not going to reveal it.
