Microsoft Windows: Do a file search with 'hidden files' feature enabled. You can leave the filename blank and search- altough this will return thousands of search results.. Try doing the search on a set of folders you think where the hidden file is located. You may also want to set the "file creation date" range search filter.

Do to virus some files are made permanent hidden how to make them unhidden?

Depends on what the virus actually did to hid them. For instance, if you name a file with a leading . then the file is hidden. For example: .apple.txt would be a hidden file. If you enable hidden files to be shown that might do it.

Why is Linux said to be a virus-free operating system?

Ya Linux is virus free OS, How?? Answer: Linux OS Extracted files and folders are kept hidden which cannot be accessed by viruses. Now what are Viruses?? Viruses are the files which carry the path-name of the WINDOWS FOLDER present in Windows OS where all the functional .(DOT)dll files are stored. Once these .dll files get corrupted then the PC starts behaving like a mad bull. So, these .dll kind (not the same format files) of files are also their in Linux OS but they are kept hidden, as a result the virus path cannot find them. Thus, no damage but still the files stored by the user on a Linux machine get corrupted.
