In the VI hierarchy of objects there are some hidden folders present.

These you don't see in the VIC but you can see them with Managed Object Browser (http://<VC-server>/mob).

For the folders created under the Hosts & Clusters node you can do

Get-Folder Datacenters | Get-Folder -NoRecursion

The folder Datacenters is the hidden folder that corresponds with the Hosts & Clusters node.

Since you only want to see the child folders we add the parameter -NoRecursion.
