I have a spreadsheet that I want to hide. I go to Properties and click Hidden and then Apply. What happens is that once I exit out of Excel, the hidden files appear again.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.

Your windows explorer has the option show hidden files enabled

or

The properties are not updating via excel.
