How to make a secret folder on a Windows computer that no one can see?

 

Windows is the most widely used computer operating system in the world, but still few people know about the many features hidden in it.
 

One such feature is to make a secret folder on the desktop that no one can see.
 
Yes, in fact, a folder that no one can see without even having a name on it is almost out of the question to see.
 
The only way to find it is to move the mouse over it or select the part.
 
This feature can be helpful if you want to prevent access to personal files by others, especially children.
Its procedure is as follows.

Folder with link name

For this, right-click anywhere on the Windows desktop and select New and then Folder option.
 
When the folder is created, right click on it and delete the previously written words by clicking on Rename and then type the code Alt+0160 and press enter button.
 
It's even best if you use a full-size keyboard (one with the Notepad on the right). 
This will make a folder with no name.

How to get out of sight?

To make the folder icon disappear, right-click the folder again and then go to properties.
 
Go to the Customize tab in Properties and click on the Change icon button at the bottom.
 
On clicking there, various symbols will appear; rotate forward you will see 4 blank symbol, select any of them and click on the OK button.


Now you have a folder with no name or icon and nobody will see it.
