10 December 2016 Open elevated command prompt (if needed) [In windows 7 click on globe, select run, under run press cmd now press control shift and enter simultaneously] [in windows 8 or letter right click on start and select command prompt (admin)]
under black window press enter cd\. [Now only drive letter will be appeared]
Enter dir *.xls /a:h /s /p /w for office version previous to 2003.
Enter dir *.xlsx /a:h /s /p /w for office version from 2007 onwards.
Enter dir *.* /a:h /s /p /w to know all hidden files

11 December 2016 In windows 8 click on File Explorer [Folder Icon] on taskbar. From top select option view and select or check "Hidden Items". Now go to the folder where your file stored. The file should reflect light colour and name.
Its only about the file if attributed as hidden status and the file is not protected operating system file. Apart from that if you want to change / know other options then select "Option" from the top on right most and select view tab.
