Hide private Files & Folders with Command Prompt

  The most beautiful thing of using this method is anyone cannot find hidden files even after clicking "Show Hidden Files and Folders". Most of us have some Private & Important Files & Folders which we don't want to show everyone. For this I am bringing you a trick which will help you to hide your files & folders without using any paid or unpaid software. Just follow these few steps............
1. Open Command Prompt
                                          (i) Open RUN from START menu than type CMD & press ENTER
                                             [ On desktop Press WINDOW key + R for RUN dialog box ]
 or         (ii) You can find the COMMAND PROMPT under START menu than ALL PROGRAMS than
                  ACCESSORIES 
2.  Now type "attrib +s +h D:\PHOTOS" and hit enter.
      [ There PHOTOS is a folder located in D:\ drive which you want to hide ]
3. To make the folder Unhidden  just type 
                                   "attrib -s -h D:\PHOTOS"
in Command Prompt
   [ To make the folder Unhidden we are replacing both of the " + " marks with " - " marks before " s " & " h "
