Cool Way To Hide Folders Without Using The Hidden Attribute
Right-click where ever you want the invisible folder to be and select create a new folder. Right-click on the folder and hit rename. Erase the name completely than hold ALT key and press 0160 (make sure the Num Lock is on), release ALT. You should now see a blank name with nothing but a folder next to it.
Now right-click on the nameless folder and select Properties. Go to Customize tab. Press the Change Icon Button and scroll through the icons until you find one that has no image! Select it and hit OK.
In this invisible folder you can hide anything of any size
The folder might show up for a brief second if you leave it on your desktop so better leave it inside few other folders. Time to hide ___ good boy!

The problem still remains if you open explorer the hidden folder shows up as an empty space between the rest of the folders, if your intention would be to hide it that would not take long before it’s discovered that you can just click on that empty space and the folder opens immediately.
