Cool How To: Hide sensitive folders and their contents

How To: Hide sensitive folders and their contents

1.
First create a new folder somewhere on your hard drive.
when you name it, hold down "Alt" and press "0160" this
will create an invisible space so it will apper as if it has no
name.

2. Then right click it and select "Properties" select the tab
"customize" and select "change icon" scroll along and you
should see a few blank spaces, click on any one and click ok.
When you have saved the settings, the folder and it's
contents will be invisible.

NOTE: Be sure to remember where you saved the file, or leave yourself a hint somewhere, preferably in a different location!

sorry, m8t3, that's assuming that you are using Windows(the majority of folks are) or if it doesn't work, more recent versions including vista would substitute "alt"+"255" will work, you can also use this to rename windows controlled icons such as the recycling bin.
