We can set hidden attribute for DOS based OS (Windows) as below using NIO2 API

Path path = Paths.get("c:\sample");
Files.createFile(path);
Files.setAttribute(path, "dos:hidden", true);

or

DosFileAttributeView dosFileAttrView = Files.getFileAttributeView(path, DosFileAttributeView.class);
dosFileAttrView.setHidden(true);

We also can read this addribute using NIO2 API.
