I have been using v14 for a while now. Many of my site files are done in a "hidden" format (i.e my footer is called .footer.php). Last week, I was able to see all of the hidden files in a folder in CC, but today I opened the program, and I the "my computer" tab is not showing any of the (dot) files. I check the folder to make sure they are there, and they are, but CC just won't show them.

What could have caused this issue and how do I fix it?

How did they become dot files in the first place?

I made them dot files originally. When I created my footer file I named the file (dot)footer.php.

And up until today, they have always shown in the "My Computer" tab in CC.

Open your My Computer folder though Explorer. Select Organize > Folder and Search Options > View tab. Scroll down and select Show Hidden Files and Folders. It's also a good idea to uncheck Hide Extensions for Known File Types.

Also, v14 is a bit older of a version. Time to upgrade to v15!

They were already set to show hidden and to not hide extensions, but I went ahead and changed them and changed them back.

That fixed it. Thank you!

As for the upgrade, got to convince the company to pay for the new version.
