When I upload folders beginning with (.) such as (.dart_tool) to the server through WinSCP, they automatically got hidden.

I don't want them to be hidden in the server.

How can I Prevent the program from doing this?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I thought that the folder had become hidden in a way that would make me see it hidden also on Windows, but I have now tried copying the folder from Android to Windows and found the folder visible.

Thanks to everyone who helped me and explained the cause of the problem.

All files that start with . are treated as hidden on *nix shells. WinSCP assumes that the remote server is *nix, so it by default hides such files on the remote panel.

You can make WinsCP display all files in preferences using the Show hidden files option.
