It's supposed to be under Tools Menu, but it's not there anymore, instead it was been replaced by a Synchronize option. Have you experience the same to your computer? What should I do? I want to view hidden files to detele viruses, but I can't locate the Folder Option. Do you know other way to view Folder Option? Please share. Thanks!

first tell me which operating system(o.s.) are you using? I have faced this problem many times in microsoft product because of virus. Many times because of virus, it is getting deleted. and i tried to find out solution for this issue but i couldn't. You have to reinsstall ur o.s. or overwrite o.s.Mostly microsoft it is available in tools menu and control pannel. You can use either of them. if both location are not having folder option. you have to use DOS to delete virus. Best luck

To open Folder Options, go to tools and at the very bottom, under the Synchronize option is Folder Options.
Since it seems that your Folder Options is missing, here are a few methods of getting it back:

Fortunately I have not yet experienced folder options to be missing.
Hope this helps get yours back.
