Hidden Folder in MS Window

Guide on how to hide folder better than just adding hidden attribute.

1) Create a new folder
2) Rename the new folder an invisible character. You can do this by renamed the folder and using    ALT+0160. You should now have a folder with a " " as its name.
3) To make the folder  icon gone, change folder icon by right click to the folder, click "properties" then go to "customize" tab
Click on "change icon" then select transparent background as icon Then click OK and apply

See empty space under the blue box?thats the transparent icon












Your hidden folder are done now , you can add some flavor by changing its attribute as "hidden" or "system"


In order to delete the folder you’ll need to rename it in the command prompt by typing:
< ren " " anynamehere > That’s not a space in between the quotes. You need to press ALT+1060. You’ll then be able to delete the folder.
