Input type="file"; Visibility="hidden"

The <input> HTML element is used to create interactive controls for web-based forms to accept data from the user. <input> works varies considerably depending on the value of its type of attribute. <input> elements with type="file" let the user choose one or more files from their device storage. Once chosen, the files can be uploaded to a server using form submission or manipulated using JavaScript code and the File API. By keeping <input> elements of visibility hidden, let web developers include data that cannot be seen or modified by users when a form is submitted. As a result, the input fields of type file having visibility hidden, cannot be access using any access specifiers directly. Furthermore, if this <input> element nested by some other <input> element, hidden inputs are completely invisible in the rendered page, and there is no way to make it visible in the page's content. Thus, it really makes automation bottle neck in this scenario. Reflecting in the image below.
