On Windows 10, hidden share folder are also referred as “Administrative shares,” and they’re traditional shared folders, but with the difference that they’re not visible when browsing with File Explorer, Run command, or when using any other app — unless you try to connect using the full path of the folder.
Typically, Windows 10 includes some Administrative shares, such as C$, IPC$, and ADMIN$, and it’s also a handy option to hide resources from users without completely blocking them access if they need to use them.

Use the drop-down menu to select the user or group to share the folder. For example, select the Everyone group.
Click the Add button.
Under the Permission Level section, select the type of sharing permissions you want the folder to have. For example, you can select Read (default) if you only want users to be able to view and open files. If you select Read/Write, users can view, open, modify, and delete the content on the folder you’re sharing.
Click the Share button.
Click the Done button.
Click the Apply button.
Click the OK button.
Once you complete the steps, the shared folder will be invisible using File Explorer on any computer. However, it’ll still be accessible using the folder path. For example, \10.1.2.12ShareSix$.
