Help - How to hide files under Yosemite

[wind06]

Hi,

for some reason the following command does not work within my environment:

"defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -boolean false ; killall Finder"

I do not get any error messages but all hidden files are still visible.

when "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -boolean true ; killall Finder"

is working fine. I am running Yosemite, the OS is installed on a SSD drive when my home folder is on a separate HD...
any help or suggestion will be very much appreciated.

Thanks
