    You can perform the following steps:

     

    1. diskpart> list volume(find the volume you want to clear hidden)

    2. diskpart> select volumeNUMBER(please adjust the NUMBER accordingly)

    3. diskpart> attributes volume clear hidden

    lol gotta love the repeated fail response.  I think this is related to the Partition Type.  0x7 is normal.  0x27 is a utility partition.  etc.  still trying to sort out how to change the partition type or even find out what it is.  I am having same issue.

    What's more to love is the moderator is able to assign his own useless response as the answer...

    I think this might help more.

    In short:

    select disk #

    select partition #

    delete partition override

    My solution was to boot with the Windows CD, delete the partition and recreate
