Many times Explorer will remove or disable the Folder Option in Tools but there is a way to deal with it. If Folder Options is disabled but Registry Editor is still working in your system, then you can enable Folder Options by editing Windows Registry.
Open any folder and from menu bar (press 'alt' key if menu bar is not visible) select Tools > Folder Options. A small pop up window will appear, switch to 'view' tab and find 'Don't show hidden files, folder or drives' under Hidden files and folder option click on it and then click 'ok'. Now right click on the desired folder and select 'properties', in the general tab check the option 'hidden' and click 'ok'. Press F5 once or refresh via right click and folder or file will disappear.
Msconfig doesn't allow you to change the viewing options of your computer. However, if you want to change the viewing options, you can opt for the Folder Options option in the Windows explorer.
