Debugsession must not turn hidden objects on.

[Ruud Uphoff]

HI,

System is Windows 10, 64 bits, november 2015
TCC is version 19.02.39

Each time I start a debug session, all hidden files (not system) are made visible.

Any idea how to get rid of it?

I don't know what you mean -- "made visible" where?

And what do you mean by starting a debug session - do you mean starting BDEBUGGER (the IDE)?

H,
See picture below. I Use "Don't show hidden file, folders, or drives.
A session with BDEBUGGER switch that into "Show hidden files, folders, and drives.
This should not happen.

I can reproduce it.

Indeed, when IDE starts,

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Hidden

changes from 2 to 1. When IDE exits, it changes back. Using F5, you can see it in an Explorer window.

Even if you have the hidden Explorer setting, you see hidden files in IDE's File\Open dialog.

The IDE turns on "show extensions" and "show all objects" in the Windows shell, and resets them to their original values when it exits. This was requested by many users (and has behaved this way for 10+ years). You're the first user to request it be changed back -- you can submit a request to the feedback forum for an option to disable it.

Rex,

here IDE does not showing hidden files - maybe it's related to a generally problem with TCMD and hidden files. Please show post ...

I have made additionally infos there ...

Thank you!

OKAY: I was probably wrong: I see: the Advanced Options from TCMD affects the ...

ShowHiddenFiles=No

and NOT the ...

ShowSysFiles=No
ShowSuperHidden=No

... this was my problem - at least it seems so - I'll check it out and report here soon ...

EDIT: yes, I was confused with those different options! It works right! And yes, also here I need a restart of TCMD to see the effect in File Explorer from TCMD (nevertheless the option changes immediately)!

Aha..
It seems I am not as decent as expected. Hidden files remain visible, because sometimes, I just click the windows close icon [X].
But thanks to vefatica for the registry entry I was searching for. Now, if hidden remains visible, I just click al small batch with a reg add command.

Thanks

Is there any chance to avoid this behaviour after close Icon [X]?

Here, there is no problem using the "X". It does reset "Don't show hidden ...". If you have an expolrer window open at the time, you must refresh it (F5) to see things become hidden again after X-ing BDEBUGGER.

Ok, that's good news, thank you very much!
