Please suggest me how to go to workflow hidden library in Sharepoint.

I had deleted workflows from list but in Sharepoint designer I am able to see even I delete in site.

It is showing files like .xoml, .xoml.config.rules, .xoml.rules and .xsn files.

It is showing the path as {SiteUrl}/Workflows/{WorkflowName.xoml} like this but I am unable to open that location.

If any blog is available related also please reply me.

    Hi @KRISTAM SHANMUKHA SAI , welcome to Q&A forum!

    Per my understanding, what you see may be like this:

    Depending on the settings made for the workflow in Workflow Designer, the number of files in the associated workflow folder might change. However, the file with the .xoml extension is the key file that supports workflows. Under normal circumstances, users do not need to modify these configuration files, they only need to create or modify their own workflow.

    ====================================

    Did you create this workflow in SPD and delete it in SPD? Has this workflow been confirmed to be deleted? Or did you not delete the workflow but just remove it?

    And could you please describe what does this "Workflow hidden library" refer to, more information can help us better understand your situation.

    =====================Update1=======================
    You could click Workflows and find the workflow you want, right click it and select to delete:

    Then you will not find it any more:
