Tip#21: Make your file hidden
Have you ever tried to hide the file or the folder that may need privacy. Here is the solution for you. You can hide the file without using any software just by typing some commands.
Here are the steps to be followed.

1. Open "Run" by pressing "WIN+R".
2. Type "cmd" and press enter to enter Command Prompt.
3. Then type the command "attrib +s +h filename" and hit enter.
