Brimmy's Guide on hiding important/secret files.
1.1 Open any folder.
1.2 Click "
Tools" > "
Folder Options..."
1.3 Click the "
View" tab & untick "
Hide extensions for now file types" & click apply. You know should be able to see file extensions.
1.4 Right click on the file you want to hide & click "
Rename".
1.5 Now comes the tricky part, Say you had a text file & it was called "passwords.txt" you would take away the ".txt" & put a ".a" or just "." anything, This will corrupt the file making it unable to be viewed or played ( Movie. ) until you change it back to the original format, Once you change it back to the original format you can view everything as normal no data loss or corruption.
