Cyberdevs Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Thanks for the video tutorial but as far as I know this keyboard shortcut is only available in macOS Sierra 10.12.6 and newer, for the earlier versions of macOS Sierra or Mac OS X we still need to use the terminal commands or 3rd party apps. 2 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/335472-how-to-show-hidden-files-on-mac-os-fastest-easiest-way/#findComment-2634133 Share on other sites More sharing options...
