Hide Files and Folders on your System without using any Software.

How many times have you wished of a software using which you can hide or lock files,  restricting its access to other unwanted users?. Although there are various software available in market using which you can easily lock/hide files but, i personally dont trust them because most of them are bloatware or spyware.

I'm going to share a simple yet powerful way of locking and hiding important files using the following method. Follow the instructions to make you own Locker ( Without any software !! ) :

  >>> Open notepad on your computer.

  >>> Copy the following code in notepad file : 

       cls
    @ECHO OFF
    title Folder Locker
    if EXIST "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" goto UNLOCK
    if NOT EXIST Locker goto MDLOCKER
    :CONFIRM
    echo Are you sure u want to Lock the folder(Y/N)
    set/p "cho=>"
    if %cho%==Y goto LOCK
    if %cho%==y goto LOCK
    if %cho%==n goto END
    if %cho%==N goto END
    echo Invalid choice.
    goto CONFIRM
    :LOCK
    ren Locker "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
    attrib +h +s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
    echo Folder locked
    goto End
    :UNLOCK
    echo Enter password to Unlock folder
    set/p "pass=>"
    if NOT %pass%==YOUR PASSWORD HERE goto FAIL
    attrib -h -s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
    ren "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" Locker
    echo Folder Unlocked successfully
    goto End
    :FAIL
    echo Invalid password
    goto end
    :MDLOCKER
    md Locker
    echo Locker created successfully
    goto End
    :End

 >>> Change the “YOUR PASSWORD HERE” in the code above with your own password you desire.

 >>> Save it as batch file ( with extension .bat ) For eg. Locker.bat
 >>> Now you will see a batch file. Double click it to create a folder locker ( A new folder named Locker would be formed at the same location )
 >>> That is it, you have now created your own locker and that too without using any software
 >>> Brings all the files you want to hide in the locker folder.
 >>> Double click the batch ( As created above ) file to lock the folder namely Locker.
 >>> If you want to unlock your files, simple double click the batch file again and you would be prompted for password ( In DOS window ). Enter the password and enjoy access to the folder.
    But don’t delete .bat file and lose your stuff.

How Simple and Cool is that?!
