Invisible and Hidden Folders in 5 Easy Steps

Well as many of you know hiding stuff from prying eyes can be difficult. But there is a way.

1: On your desktop right click and select New and then Folder.

2: To make the name invisible type alt+0160(numbers in numpad)

3: Now right click on the folder and go properties, general and look down. It
should say read only and hidden. Select hidden. Now people can't see the file
size.

4: Ok so we have done all that but the folder is still there. Go to customize still in
Properties. Click change icon. Now you should get a little window showing all
different icons. Look for an icon that is blank. In other words nothing there
just a space.

5: Now if you really want it to be hidden including to other people on your
computer go to Properties, Sharing and click make this folder private.

And there we go you have a hidden folder. It is not completely hidden though but if a person looks at your computer they will not know it is there.
