We can use various software to hide folders
or files in our computer or laptop in order to protect those from guest or from
any other person. But we require software in order to provide privacy or security
to that file or folder. In this tutorial i would like to explain you about a
simple process by which you can hide your files using command prompt. This is
one of the easiest techniques which are explained as follows...
So let’s start...
To make Private folder which nobody can
open, delete, see properties, rename.
1. To make such a folder you need to make a
folder with any name. For example "new"(without quotes) on desktop.
2. Then open command prompt (type cmd in
run) and then type the following command on the screen.
3. Type cd desktop and press enter.
4. Then type the following code Cacls Folder /E /P everyone:n (in this folder represents
the folder name which you want to hide).
5. Now hit enter the folder is locked. Try to open the folder it will
display that the file does not have access.
6. That’s it the folder is locked, you can keep any type of file
inside that folder and lock it (the folder should be in desktop).
7. Now if you want to open the cmd (type cd desktop and press enter)
just replace n with f in the command (i.e.) Cacls Folder /E /P everyone:n
instead of this type Cacls
Folder /E
/P everyone:f
8. Thus you can unlock the folder and
view or edit contents.
Just a few
seconds needed for this tricks. This trick is safe and does not require any
software feel free to comment…
