Should the hidden folders always been shown? It may be against the idea of hidden folder.
I reckon having a setting for this could be interesting. Should be turned off by default.

There's already a show hidden folder option it should use

So the folders should only show up when the show hidden folder option is checked?

Correct

This is an issue with the advanced query syntax used in StorageFileExtensions (line 289) which doesn't list hidden files or folders. I will try looking into this, but help would be appreciated.

@hecksmosis I believe it's because GetFoldersWithPathAsync is using the WinRT APIs instead of WIN32_FIND_DATA.

Will look into it when I have some free time
