Hiding files (for beginners)

Sometimes we need to hide some personal files...
Here is a simple trick to hide files...
Anyone cannot find these files even through "Search" or by "'DIR' command"...(BEGINNERS)

Suppose, if you have a file named "Myphotos" in a folder named "Venky" in "F" drive

And want to hide this file... Follow these steps...
1.Open Command prompt
2. Move to the folder

3.Now type "attrib +s +h Myphotos"(without quotes)(Here 's' means system file and 'h' hidden.We are converting normal file/folder to hidden system ile/folder)
4.Press enter

5.Now the file will disappear...

6. Now no one can find the file even through search or by "DIR" command...
Again  if you want to open the file...
Follow these steps...
1.Goto cmd prompt
2.move to the folder

3.Type "attrib -s -h Myphotos"(without quotes)

4. Now again the file appears in the folder...

5. In this way you can hide any file...

NOTE:
You should not forget the file name... If you forget the file name, then goto tools option in the menu bar->click folder options->view tab and uncheck hide protected operating system files and click show hidden files and folders. Press ok. Now you can see ur file.
