Just wanted to know is there a way to scanning hidden objects. I need to find only hidden files from a downloaded folder and scan them. Thanks in advance.

You can see some hidden files if you open up ClamWin and look at your computer from there.
Best way to see hidden files is to unhide them via Start, Control Panel, Folder Options, View, untick Hide protected operating system files, Apply, OK. Then look for the files. Tick the hide protected OS files again when through.
Regards,

Hello guys......
I only suggest you that you firstly unhidden the files then start scan. If you want not unhidden the file,So some antivirus has option to scan the hide files.

The Clam Sentinel real-time AV software that works with ClamWin scans hidden files and will unhide them if they are quarantined as suspicious. Clam Sentinel is a separate project from ClamWin, and it is also free. ClamWin must be installed before you install Clam Sentinel. Check it out at https://sourceforge.net/projects/clamsentinel/ on the web.

If you scan the whole folder then clamwin will find hidden files as well |
