Perfect Way to Hide a Folder
Hi friends and follower today i will tell you how to hide a folder in best way without using folder option.
Everybody knows that when we hide a folder using folder option it can be available for everyone. Any user that uses your computer can see that folder by uncheck the setting form folder option. But don’t worry here is a better way to do this. You adopt this way and no one can access your personal folder on your pc.
I will tell with snapshots.
For example I have a folder with named personal and I want to hide it. Just see below picture and note my folder's name and location.
Note: this is my Personal folder and location of it. In your case you can place it anywhere in your drive. My folder placed in D drive.
