defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE
defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool FALSE
defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles NO

The other way is there.

Open terminal = spotlight search terminal

paste in these lines

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE

killall Finder

To hide hidden files just change TRUE = FALSE

Hope this will work for you, else you can find apps that will show hidden files mac.
