Hi there. I came across this page whilst searching for how to create a hidden folder in Windows.
The reason I need to do so is to create a demo CD for a client. It's basically a website on a CD, and I want to just have the index page visible, with all the sub-linked pages and graphics in a hidden folder on the CD, so that the user only has one file to click on.
I did initially explore the route of setting the folder's 'Properties' to have an 'Attribute' of 'Hidden'. But the problem with this method, I later discovered, is that the 'Hidden' preference is tied to the machine, rather than the folder itself. So if that folder were to be viewed across a network, it would now be visible.
So my question is, will this other method that is mentioned here, ie: setting the icon to blank be applied to the folder itself or only to the one machine that I set that preference on?
I would test this myself across a network, but I don't have a network. I'm just here on the one machine.
Does anyone know the answer to this? Could anyone with a network test it for me?
Cheers!
Brett!
