Description Ricardo Alejandro García Gómez 2020-02-10 01:49:39 UTC

Please, could you add an option for hide files and folders to Dolphin for Windows? 
I know that is possible hide a file or folder at Linux adding a "." before the name of the file or folder, or creating a list within a text file called ".hidden" in the directory where it is hosted.
I require hiding files and folder for an USB drive that I use with Windows and, unfortunately, I cannot convince all the people around me for use Linux.
Sincerely

We can't control what Windows does, but we do respect the hidden flag in windows. So if you mark the folder as hidden in Windows, it will be hidden in Dolphin on Linux too.

I don't think there is a way to make a folder visible on Linux but hidden on Windows.
