First, open Settings. You can find it pinned to the Start menu and click on the gear icon, or you can press Windows + i on your keyboard to bring up.
In Settings, How to hide files “Personalization”. In the alternatives on the right side of the window, scroll down and select “Start”.
In the settings “Beginning”, set the switch next to “How to hide files, Jump Lists and File Explorer” on “disabled”.
Now, close Settings. The next time you open the Start menu, How to hide files “How to hide files”.
Nice and clean. Have fun exploring Windows 11!
