Ghost overview

Ghost helps with all those files on your computer that you can't see. Apple has conveniently hidden many system files from you, so that your computer doesn't look like an ugly, cluttered mess. However, they have not provided any easy way to create your own hidden files, or even to view theirs. Ghost provides a simple, user-friendly way to do both of these things. Simply drag-and-drop a file or folder into the list, then uncheck (or check) its checkbox and the item will be instantly hidden or un-hidden.

What’s new in version 3.0

Please I want to download the program but it seems the developer site has removed it... The link won't work anymore. Is there any way to arrange for the developer to send this program to me? I have a friend who has it and I've tried it repeatedly and it really works wonderfully and would love to have it. THANKS!!

I installed Ghost 1.0 a few months ago. It`s a good program, providing a simple way to hide particular folders and make them visible again when needed. Unfortunately, I`ve been unable to install any update. 1.1 didn`t work, and 2.0 still won`t install. Same problem: dialog box says the program is installing and will restart but nothing happens, no matter how long I wait. I hope the developer fixes this persistent problem before working on the next release!

I still have the same problem with this app, when I install version 2.0 and relaunch it my CPU gets crazy, so I have to force quit it. I strongly suspect the developer couldn't care less about us TONROO.

I checked for updates and found version 2.0 is available. But when I try to install it my CPU get crazy (about 100%), so I have to quit the installation. Am I the only one with this problem, developer?
