Sorry for not making my post very clear. Originally users were unable to see hidden files and folders as intended. I then uploaded the new intranet page and forced the homepage to this intranet page. After this change all users could see hidden files and folders. Changing the settings back to unconfigured stopped users from viewing hidden files and folders.

I have set up over 50 iPads for students using mobile config's wep2 enterprise certificates using a windows machine, if you are creating them using Iphone Configuration Utility on a Mac you should have no troubles selecting your certificate from the drop down list, if you are working on a windows machine like myself you will need to find the web version of Iphone configuration utility to sign the certificates using the webpage then import back into the normal program to set permissions/restrictions ect. then sync with your iOS devices. Using these programs you can "trust" certificates when they are not digitally signed. Hope this information helps.

I think i have found the issue causing this, as it happened to my school recently due to creating an intranet page for students/staff Problem lies in setting the default homepage through group policy for internet explorer, at first i was extremely confused why all users could see hidden files and folders then i worked out what was causing it to begin with, all users have logged into their workstations at least once since the change so i reverted back to unconfigured logged into a workstation as a student and hey presto no hidden files and folders, dont ask me why this causes it as i haven't the foggiest but im glad i worked it out haha
