How to Have a "Hidden" Folder..

Well you have "a folder that you want hidden but it's too much trouble to go into the file settings each and every time and showing hidden files and folders. You don't have time for that and you just want something simple! Well here's the solution. Create a new folder and hold alt+0160 while renaming the folder. This will cause the name to disappear! Unfortunately now you have a picture of a folder with no name so it makes it pretty out in the open. Anyone can access it so it makes no sense to hide the name. I have a solution for this to. Here is what you do. Right click on the folder and then click on properties: Then you click on the tab that says Customize: After that you'll need to click on the button that says Change Icon: Finally you'll need to choose a picture that best fits: they are all invisible but they do different things. Try logging in and out to see if you can still see the folder. I find that having the background black keeps things invisible on startup so you don't have the chance of someone seeing the folder. Changing the background after login does not show the folder: Now after this is all said and done you can apply the changes and this is what you will have: *NOTE* The folder can only be seen if selected. The box does not show if not selected. Here's how to delete the "Hidden" Folder if in desktop :- My "Hidden" Folder is on my desktop so what I want to do is set the command to be this: ren "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\(Alt+0160)\" "Folder" Press enter Make sure that you type ALT+0160 as Holding the alt key down and then typing those numbers. No parenthesis.
