Explanation

Folder Options (also called File Explorer Options in newer Windows versions) is the Control Panel utility that controls how files and folders are displayed in Windows Explorer. Under the 'View' tab, there is a setting called 'Show hidden files, folders, and drives' that enables visibility of hidden items. Credential Manager stores login credentials, BitLocker manages drive encryption, and the System applet shows OS and hardware info - none of these affect file visibility settings.
