So, I want to add some files to a hidden directory, the only issue is I can't see the directory.

Its a retroarch core that isn't avalibke in-app

How do I force android to show hidden directories? (I don't think root is an option)

It was a matter of wrong core, managed to install it in a public folder, will keep this here in case anyone wants this for future reference

I have the option to see hidden files using Material Files (won't let you look inside Android folder tho); if you need something more heavy duty there's Ghost Commander. Both are available on F-Droid. There's also Files from GrapheneOS, which might be available on the Play Store, but not sure about that one.

Thank you.

Actually found a solution for what I needed without using this but this might help for future reference, rhx
