How to truly hide a folder in Win XP
 

we need to create two batch files




the first batchfile will “lock” the folder (actually it will turn the ordinary folder into a link to any address using an address code), and the other one will “unlock” it. When someone tries to access that folder, he will be redirect to redirected to wherever we want




For example


1. Create a folder, that you will use to store your protected data.

For this example, I created a folder called “locked”, and put that folder in My ********s

[


2. Open Notepad and copy this code
ren “FOLDERNAME” “FOLDERNAME“.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}
“FOLDERNAME” change in to name of your folder, in this example “FOLDERNAME” is locked.My code looks like this
ren locked.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} locked
Save notepad file like lock.bat in My ********s.
In option Save as Type, select All Files


3. Open another notepad file and copy this code
ren “FOLDERNAME“.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} “FOLDERNAME” ,
Save file as in Step 2, just choose a different filename , like unlock.bat





If we open (double click) lock.bat our folder will turn into a link to Control Panel, and the files will not be visible. until we use unlock.bat
