Index

Access Hidden items settings

  1. Click Settings at the bottom of the left menu.

  2. Select the General tab.

  3. Scroll to the Hidden items section.

Available options

Display system lists

Toggle on to display system lists.

System lists include Access Requests, Master Page Gallery, Site Pages, etc.

If you choose to display them, they will show in the Explorer tree. This makes the operations you perform run on system lists.

For example, if you perform a Find operation on a site to find documents larger than a given size, this option will impact whether or not the results include documents found in system lists.

Display redirect sites

Toggle on to display redirect sites in the explorer.

Redirect sites are created after a site address is changed or moved to a new geo-location.
