Download vcleaner0.98.exe from net and scan your computer with that. It is better at removing viruses than other anti viruses and is file is so small in size

Right off the assembly line
These kind of problem usually occurs due to virus
Download this excellent clean up engine tool and update frm trend micro

Engine(3mb)
*www.trendmicro.com/ftp/products/tsc/sysclean.com

update(21mb)
*www.trendmicro.com/ftp/products/pattern/lpt609.zip

extract the ipt609.zip update to the same folder as that of sysclean.com and start the sysclean
Sysclean.com file and unzipped update files shud be in the same folder for this to work
This tool will not revert back ur hidden folder option,that sud be done manually(registery editing) after cleaning the disk

@skghosh44
ur computer is infected, scan & clean with above tool

Greetings...I'm facing the same problem as my hidden files won't show up.
Everytime I click on the option to display it, it returns back to default.

I tried following your method, but the 2nd link doesn't work anymore and I was confused to which one I was suppose to download when I went to the trend micro website. I was wondering if you can provide the links again.

Yes, its a virus problem. Download "HijackThis" from *www.hijackthis.de/ and scan with it. Then post the log file contents here. :)
Also scan with a good anti-virus software, like:

FREE : avast! or AVG
PAID : NOD32 or Kaspersky

i m facing same problem & my log is :
