Files remain hidden after I turn off "Hide Desktop"

Hi there,
I seem to have run into a crazy problem. I tried to use "Hide Desktop" but got a message that it wasn't possible to hide the desktop because I had turned on "Show all files".
Then I turned off the "Hide Desktop" but some of the files remain hidden. I checked the file flags and the "hidden" flag is removed from all files, but the Finder shows some of the files still as hidden. How can I restore this so that all files are shown again?
 
Hi Oliver,
also please launch 'Terminal' application and run these commands:
Code:
defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles
Code:
 ls -la ~/Desktop
Please post output of commands here
