Default Is there any way to hide folders with the "_files" extension?

Not really a Word thing (I'm guessing it's an OS feature): one thing special
about these folders is that if you delete the htm file in Windows, the
folder gets automatically deleted as well. Any idea on how they do that? I'm
guessing it must be some kind of linking as it would seem odd to me that the
simple delete command would investigate your files. So I'm wondering if you
somehow know how Word does set up those links.

They are the files associated with documents saved as web pages. Save your
web pages in a separate folder from your Word documents and avoid the
clutter.

Not sure what they are or why they are there, but the folders with the
"_files" extension really clutter things up and make it difficult to find
the
files I am looking for. Any way to hide those, or some other method so
that
I don't have to look at these?
