      Now I can't find the folder anymore. The Invisible Window is empty (not show the Folder anymore) and on of the the wrong USB-HD Drives are also.
      When I connect the rightHD also.
      I didn't get a warning before when I clicked the Restore Button. I am a registered User and worked before fine.

        if you have a time machine backup you could restore this folder:
        ~/Library/Containers/com.sweetpproductions.Invisible

        or you could also manually unhide the file(s) like so:
        Open Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
        paste in this command:

        defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES
        
        • press enter
        • relaunch the finder
        • locate your files

        Invisible adds a . to the beginning of your files,
        just remove the .

        then, undo the changes:

        • Open Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
        • paste in this command:
        defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO
        
        • press enter
        • then relaunch the finder
