How to Hide Text In Notepad- a Fine Trick


How to Hide Text In Notepad- a Fine Trick


 Today I going to show a trick based on  hiding the text inside your Notepad. You have to use command prompt to perform this trick

 
Steps to hide text in a Notepad

1) Open your command prompt  by Start–>Run and Type cmd

2) If you are in some other path then Type cd.. which is a  command to move one level up. But you have to move to C:\Users\user_name>

3) Type cd desktop to move to your desktop.

4) Type the below code in your command prompt
notepad  anyfilename.txt:hidden as shown

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
5) Now you can write some data(which you want to hide)  and save(Ctrl+S) the file.       

6) Browse to the file location and Open anyfilename.txt you cannot see any data in the file.

7) To retrieve the hidden data open command prompt and type the same command
as "notepad filename.txt:hidden"(without quotes)

NOTE:

But this trick works  on NTFS file system ONLY.

 

Hope you like it. :)
