How to hide a folder or file by using simple command prompt:

            Everyone has lot of privacy files in their laptop and they don’t want to show it to others. To hide those files usually they will use customize option, which opens by right clicking that file. By hiding the file using this format will work but that file will appear in the search menu.
Here is a simple trick using command prompt to hide the files or folders easily and the hidden file will never appear in the search even if we keep “show all hidden folders “in folders option.

Steps to hide a file or folder:
v  For example, if you want to hide a file named as Technolly that stored in Drive E.
v  First of all press Windows + R, Run command window will open.

v  Now type “cmd” and then press enter, command prompt window will appear.
v  Then type “attrib +s +h E:\Technolly” and press enter key.

v  Now you can see that, the particular file has been hidden, no one can find that file until you unlock that file.
