Question

How to hide a folders from " view hidden files " in windows 7 using command prompt?

Answer 1

The first method is by using the attrib command as seen below.

attrib +h c:\autoexec.bat

This command hides your autoexec.bat file so a standard user browsing your hard drive would not be able to see the file. To make the file unhidden use -h instead of the +h so the line would look like the example below.
