Visual studio 2010 solution explorer settings

I got a fairly large (C++) project in Visual studio 2010. Somehow I managed to click "Show all files" in the solution explorer and now a bug in visual studio 2010 is preventing me from uncheck the option.

Do anyone here know where the this setting is stored? I've searched the solution file, project files, filter files without finding anything.

In addition to those programming in C++, for VS 2010 C++ these files are:

ProjectName.suo ProjectName.vcxproj.user

For C#, similar user-specific data is stored in SolutionName.suo (hidden) and ProjectName.csproj.user files. See if you have what might be the equivalent files for C++. You can freely delete these files to reset user-specific settings, which should restore solution explorer to its default view.
