Hide your Folders without using any softwares

[Batistabomb]

Guys i had a cool technique where we can hide a folder containing secured files or personal data,come let's take on

1. choose the folder you want to protect. [Ex: c:myFolder]

2. Copy the following text

{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} (copy with brackets)

3. Right click on your folder [Ex: c:myFolder] and then rename it as :

myFolder.{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

And when you double click on it nothing will be present in it and looks like a recycle bin and also u cannot view it,and for viewing it again do the reverse process below,

Reverse process :

1.Start->Run-> CMD

and press ENTER. after when you are in DOS Shell appeared type this :

c:>ren myFold~1.{64 myFolder

then press enter,finished your folder is back
