Tutorial 6 : MAKE INVISIBLE FOLDER


Note: Working in windows XP, not sure on windows 7.

Hiding folders is an easy to do task in Microsoft Windows XP.
This is a great way to keep all your personal files un-findable.

To do this, just follow steps below:




  1. Create a new folder some where. Then ‘Right Click’ and select Rename
  2. Now press and hold down the ‘Alt’ key and type in 0160
  3. This will get rid of the text. Now ‘Right Click’ on the folder, and ‘click’ on Properties
  4. Now ‘click’ on the ‘Customize’ tab. Then click on Change Icon
  5. Scroll to the right until you find a few white icons. ‘Click’ on one of them, and then click on ‘Apply’ and then ‘Ok.’
  6. Done. Now your folder is in hidden mode.

    just go through the command prompt
    and enter the drive address to which folder you want to make it invisible
    just type this command without double quotes

    "attrib -a -s -r -h foldername /s /d"
