Your external hard drive appears on your computer all right but you cannot access it?
I would try to connect the device to another computer to make sure its not just your computer. If both computers cannot see the data there is most likely damage to the FAT (file allocation table) and/or boot record or the transport hardware in the external enclosure is going bad. If you can physically remove the harddrive from the enclosure and directly connect to a motherboard, that may be another alternative. If all this fails, you may have to contact a data recovery company or try recovering data with a freeware data recovery program (or buy one)

How do you recover a folder deleted from the computer?
re-install the hiding software. Each program uses their own unique software to encript data. You cannot use another program to "Unhide" data that another program has encripted. Now, if you simply made the file hidden through windows. Open windows explorer "Windows Button + E" Click tools>Options Select folder options then click show hidden files and folders. Then browse to the last place you had the file. That's the best advice I can give.... Hope this helps!
How do you copy files using ommand prompt?
Depends on which operating system you are using and whether you want to copy more than one file.
In DOS/Windows command prompt "c:\copy xxxx /destination_folder/"
if more than one file you can use "c:\copy xxx.* /destination_folder/"
Xcopy has more options (verify, copy subdirectories ..) and is used "c:\xcopy xxx* /s /destination_folder/"
In Unix/Linux/OSX cp is the command for copying
as in "#darkstar$cp -R *.txt /destination_folder/"
cp has a lot more option than xcopy but you will need to type either "cp --help" or "man cp" to get the best of cp's actions.
