To "unhide" a directory in Linux, you can rename it to remove the leading dot (.) from its name. This can be done using the mv command. Here’s how:
Command:
mv .hidden_directory hidden_directory
Explanation:
mvis the command used to move or rename files and directories.- This command renames
.hidden_directorytohidden_directory, making it visible.
Verification:
To check that the directory is now visible, you can use:
ls
This will list all non-hidden directories and files. If you have any further questions or need assistance, feel free to ask!
