Hello,

what are ways to hide folder/directory/file in Windows?

i assume:
- moving it to hard to find path
- rename it to something that does not draw attention
- mark it super hidden +system and +hidden:
Windows key + R, type: cmd
HIDE: run: attrib +s +h c:\path\to\directoryORfile
UNHIDE: attrib -s -h c:\path\to\directoryORfile
(remember c:\path\to\directoryORfile so you can unhide it)
