Some users can be confused by .minecraft folders that feature the classical dot used for files, but be rest assured that these are really folders of the Minecraft sandbox game.
The context here is that in the past, folders that started with . were hidden in Windows Explorer by default, so the original meaning was for that particular Minecraft folder to be hidden. Most likely to prevent accidental deletion.
The same practice is used on Linux/Unix system files, for example.
