This
View | Exclude > menu hides or displays groups of folders defined by special attributes or other
conditions as explained below.

both current and future. These settings are not present and do not affect
Virtual Folders.

Hide all files and folders that have the Hidden, System, or Hidden and System
attributes set. The Hidden and System setting requires both attributes to be set
for the file or folder to be excluded.
$<folders>
Hide all folders when the name starts with a dollar sign. Folders with a name
starting with a dollar sign are frequently special folders used by the Windows
operating system.

operating system.
Exclude None, Exclude All

affected.
Folders
Excludes or includes folders in the contents (right-hand) window. This
toggles their display on and off.
Options for the display of folders can also be changed using the Explorer |
Display Folders at > command from the main menu. These commands allow you to
hide the folders or to display them at the top or bottom of the list.
Seeing the results of the changes
The changes you make in this menu will be displayed in the contents
window (on the right) immediately. Changes to the Navigation window (on the
left) will only be displayed when a folder is collapsed and reopened. This
allows you to compare the before and after (left- and right-hand windows) to
see how the changes affected what is displayed.
