Follow these simple steps to get started,
- Go to Spotlight search and open Terminal
- Paste the command : defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -boolean TRUE
- The prompt returns without error, then enter : killall Finder
Open Terminal
Run Killfinder command
Now if you open Finder, you will be able to see the hidden folders and files.
