Hidden folder in my DAZ library

Hi,
I've noticed that if I have hidden folders in my DAZ library, specifically in the morphs area, then the morphs inside those folders don't appear in DAZ. Is this deliberate?

What exact path and how are you hiding them?
They were folders inside the data folder, 'My DAZ 3D Library\data\DAZ 3D\genesis 3\female\morphs\foldername' If I hide a folder in Windows explorer such as zev0, then none of the zev0 morphs appear when i load genesis 3 female. It's not a problem as i have unhidden the relevant folders now, i was just suprised that DAZ seemed to be acting on the Windows folder properties setting 'hidden'. I think the got like this becasue I used a file recovery program to extract some files from a faulty drive.
What prompted me to look at the folders was I was getting warning messages in the log like "Could not find output property for formula: Genesis3Female:/data/DAZ%203D/Genesis%203/Female/Morphs etc etc"
Once the folder ( for example zev0) was hidden even reinstalling the morphs via DIM didn't fix them, presumablly because DIM doesn't worry about the folder settings.where it puts the files.
Just 2 say they are not hiden in mine. did you try deleting them before installing + redownload the files
Hi, no they got hidden when I used a program to restore some file off a faulty drive. I had some folders on that old drive containing morphs I made myself a while back, and i restored probably too may folders. I din't try deleting the files , but I did re-download and overwrote the morph files that weren't working, however this didn't fix the problem. The problem was the folders i restored had got set to hidden. I set all the folderers to unhidden and now everything is working again. Before I worked out about the hidden folders I was worried I might need to reinstall Studio, since nothing I did would make those morphs visible, but as I say, it's all fine now.
Thanks
