Nextcloud version: 2.6.3stable-Win64 (build 20200217) Operating system and version: Windows 10 Hi guys, I installed the Nexcloud client this morning and I noticed that the Nexcloud folder is not showing up if I use Total Commander (version 9.22a). However, the Nextcloud folder does show up if I use Windows Explorer. The folder is there, meaning that I can access it with Total Commander it I digit the full path c:\Users[username]\Nextcloud but the folder is not there if I display the content of c:\Users[username] Any idea about it? Thanks Ale ---

This is the Nextcloud forum and therefore it is very unlikely that you will get any help on a Total Commander issue. You wrote that the folder is being displayed using the Windows explorer so it seems to be a Total Commander related issue. I would recommend to address this issue in the related [help forum](https://www.ghisler.com/faq.htm). ---

Most likely the NextCloud folder is marked as Hidden or System, while the default settings for Total Commander do not show hidden/system files and folders. If so, take a look at the Configuration \> Options \> Display settings or remove the System attribute from the NextCloud folder (is it supposed to be a system folder?) ---

My mistake. It is actually a system file, not a hidden file. So I solved the issue by flagging on the option “show system file”. Thank you very much melish. Best Ale ---

For fix this issue you’ll need remove system attribute from Nextcloud folder. Open command promt and run: attrib -s c:\Users[username]\Nextcloud Now, you can see Nextcloud folder in the Total Commander, but folder icon will lost. Set it manually from c:\Program Files\Nextcloud\Nextcloud.ico ---

This works but it seems it gets reverted with every Nextcloud update. Is there a permanent solution (without enabling ‘view system files’ in TC permanently)? ---
