How Do You Hide a File on the Computer?

Having trouble hiding files on your computer, well there are multiple different programs that will help you do just this, some are completely free others may cost you a few bucks that are defiantly worth the extra protection. 

Universal Shield 4.2 is one of the best in my opinion.  It is free to try but will cost you around $35 for the license to keep using it, but I think it is worth because it is simple to use and offers some of the best security for the price.  To use Universal Shield after you download it all you have to do is run the program through the start menu, click on the wizard button if it does not start automatically which it should.  Pick hide files, folders and follow the steps which are easy to follow it basically does all the work for you. 

There are other programs that are just as easy to use and free as long as you don’t mind an occasional pop up warning messages.  These programs are as easy as a simple as drag and drop, because literally that is all you have to do after you run the program.  Just select the files you would like to hide (you can hide as many as you want at the same time) drag them from the explorer into the hide files window.  

Almost all file/folder hiding programs and software are simple to use, just look around at your options and pick the one you feel most fits you.  These programs are easy to come by and well worth the cost if any.  Most of them have a help wizard to direct you through the steps so this is obviously a plus, for people who aren’t as skilled with computers or are just looking for an easy and quick way to protect their important files from other windows users.
