How to hide files or folders using Command Prompt (cmd)

First Step: Open the run dialog box by pressing window key + R:

Second Step: In the dialog box type"cmd" and hit enter to launch command prompt.

Third Step: Once command prompt opens,type "attrib +s +h E:\the name of the file or folder you want to hide" and hit enter.For example, if you want to hide a folder named SEXOLOGY, then type "attrib +s +h E:\SEXOLOGY"

The folder "SEXOLOGY" will be hidden totally and completely. In fact, It cannot be viewed by any search options.

(To view this folder again, use the same command but replace all '+' with '-')
