everyone must have a secret. one of which is a secret file. here I will share some ways to hide files without additional softwere for windows operating system.

1. hide files with properties

this way is the most commonly used and widely available tutorial on the internet

Prepare the File You Want to Hide => Right Click => Properties

Tick Hidden Column => Click Ok

If the File Only Looks Transparent As Shown Below

Then Click Organize => Click the Folder and Search Options

Click Do Not Show Hidden Files, Folders and or Drives

And Finally, Your File Disappears

2. hide files with CMD (command prompt)

this way is almost the same way first, this second way using CMD

Search Cmd on Start Menu and Click

Write Command With Format => Attrib + H + S "file Storage Location" => Enter

example : i want to hide windows wildlife sample video file
command: attrib + h + s "C: \ Users \ Public \ Videos \ Sample Videos \ Wildlife.wmv"

Finally, Your File Disappears

If You Want to Display Again Then Change the + Sign to -

example: attrib -h -s "C: \ Users \ Public \ Videos \ Sample Videos \ Wildlife.wmv" and your files will re-appear

3. Disguise the file with rename

this way I like the most, why? because it is easy and efficient. By renaming files with unusual files, such as program files with extensions (.exe, .ini, .inf, .SFX, .bat and others). Automatically our files will not be suspected by others

Right Click File => Rename

Select the Appropriate Name

example: takes a play on the name of the winrar program folder, i make name parody from default64.sfx

If You Want More Secure Then Move Our Files to the Folder

General psychologically , people will surely think it's a file belonging to a winrar program so that no suspicions arise to our files

it's all my experience in hiding files, I hope can help, wise in hiding something hehehe
