Windows Tips and Tricks

Hiding zip files

1. Put all the files you want to hide in "tohide.zip".
2. Take an image file, lets say "nothinghere.png".
3. This command will do the trick. You can hide it in any file extension and save it as any type of file.
   copy /b nothinghere.png+tohide.zip secret.png
4. To view the hidden contents, open this file in 7zip file manager or any unzipping app.
5. You can extract the files directly from 7zip or you can use this command.
   copy /b secret.png tohide.zip
6. An extra tip for you is to hide this inside an invisible folder.
   1. Create a new folder and rename it with Alt+255 (use only numpad for numbers and left alt).
   2. Now that the folder has a blank name, go to properties and change icon to an invisible one.
