Hi, Can you confirm how you are currently trying to find hidden directories and files using Burp? Using the Content Discovery tool within Burp should allow you to find directories and files that are not linked from elsewhere in the site by configuring Burp to use a wordlist that you wish to search against (in the same manner as other content discovery tools that are available). There are more details on this particular tool on the page below: https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/desktop/functions/content-discovery
