Description
They will list, but clicking on them gives "unsupported preview", and more importantly trying to download one results in "file not found".

Research direction
Start by reproducing the File Manager behavior with a file located beneath a folder whose name starts with a dot, checking both preview and download. No source file or test entry point is named in the issue, so trace the File Manager's path handling from the failing request. Done means such files can be previewed and downloaded without a “file not found” error.
