You know what one of the first things I do when I go on a new computer? I select the entire desktop to see if there are hidden programs, such as keyloggers, then I check task manager to see if there is a running keylogger, then I check the program folders for hidden keyloggers. Nothing is hidden on a Windows computer, even if it is invisible. What they really need to hide something on Windows is a key combo you have to hit in order to even select the hidden folder or file, preferably a "customizable for each file and folder" key combo.
@@ladvargleinad7566 Linux isn't magically immune to things like that. You do know much of that stuff is bulilt using Linux right? Wouldn't that tell you that Linux woyuld be the most insecure system? Especially when one can code keyloggers and things right into their copy of the OS, which you can't do on Windows or Mac. It isn't paranoia to be cautious or check things out before using a computer, it's smart. If you use my laptop, you'd better believe there's a keylogger on it, regardless what OS I'm using. I like to know that my friends aren't using my devices for nefarious purposes.
@@sylver369 I know, but it is way easier to find and fix the issues described in your original comment if you are using Linux. GNU/Linux at least. Android is an obvious exception. Also, it is not paranoia if they are really after you, and they are. I just use the word paranoia because it is easier to write.
Rather doing all those, I simply format and reinstall windows. Doing all those stuff does not guarantee that you will be able to remove anything malicious that you don't know about.
@@jayd6098 Keyloggers aren't malicious software. I use them myself to make sure people aren't doing anything nefarious on my computers when they use them. That's not a lot of stuff to do, and it takes far less time than formatting a computer when you don't have to. And yes, those steps are exactly how to find a keylogger that's hidden on any Windows computer. And you wouldn't be able to format every computer you get to use, because they don't all belong to you. When I said "whenever I use a new computer" I was referring to computers that I don't own, or that belong to others. By the way, with any solid state drive, you will want to format as little as possible because it only has a limited amount of read/write cycles before it will simply not work anymore. A hard disk drive (HDD) is far better for that.
Oh yeah there is a huge list of things you can input with it that are non standard or just not present on a keyboard. Go look up a list of ASCII characters and have fun.

There's a better trick that I used to do with my school's computers :) Take a screenshot of the entire desktop and put it as the desktop's wallpaper, then move the desktop icons somewhere else, and watch them trying to click them with no avail :)
I think there's also a trick that hides your folder and it doesn't make it invisible. I mean when someone randomly clicks that they can view the file. Unlike if u seriously want don't want anyone to find it, hiding it is much better.
I know in Linux you can use a dot to hide it, e.g., a folder named ".hidden folder". not sure that works in Windows. also, under properties there's clearly a tickbox labeled "hidden".
@@lily_littleangel Right click folder, select properties, toggle on the hidden option in windows, beware though, if someone has the show hidden files option turned on, they will be able to see the folder

@@ursusgameing5433 Sounds like you need to start using your own personal programs and files running on your custom bootable operating system...or just programs that are installed and run strictly From your thumb drive. Like installing portable versions of Firefox or Chrome browser so you have all your bookmarks and passwords etc and you can run it on anyone's PC without having to worry about deleting cookies and browser history or leaving any Trace of your personal business on a work PC or a public PC. Or just use WinRAR and right click any file or folder full of private files and right click, zip file, password protected, and you can then keep those things in a password protected zip file.
Note : F2 can be pressed when a folder is highlighted to rename it. Also, the numbers need to be inputted via they keypad, standard numeric keys will not populate special characters.

Lol I used to just go to my Morrowind folder and create a folder inside of it, and I’d name it “Assets” and I had all my dirty stuff in it, renamed the files dark elf this and high elf that dunmer artifacts etc, so if he ran a search for naughty words they wouldn’t pop up and my old man never knew. And since I modded morrowind so much there was so much stuff on the pc for morrowind he never would have checked for it.
@@alxds This is genius, would never of thought to hide it like this back then. 😂 Thought an invisible folder was enough, best friend ended up being the "imma drag your cursor across the screen" type.
On Windows 11, it will show a thin white outline where the icon is, so regardless which of the 4 blank icons you choose, the outline will always be shown, so it can't be really hidden, unless there's a relevant desktop background at that spot.
this is like in school when we used to make a new folder, screen print, delete the folder and set the screen print as the background on the teachers computer, creating a folder that doesn't exist but always there
It’s only invisible from your desktop but not invisible in file explorer lol. You might as well either use the hidden folder option in the property menu, hide it using terminal/CMD, or even turn a photo into a zip folder.
I ve used it this trick in 2007, then i had put calendar gadget in front of the folder, to make sure that even if someone tried to select with CTRL + A, only the "revealed" folders would be showed
This guys trying to sound smart. Alt+0160 is just the ascii key for a nonbreaking space. So press space bar instead and you get the exact same result the fast and normal way. It doesn't get rid of the name... Try ALT+0032 for exactly the same result, except this is actually ascii for nonprinting spacing character. But yeah, press space. Or get 7-zip and password protect all your Korn videos using Keepass to generate a long complex password...
Save it in the windows folder with a technical sounding name and zip the file. Then change the extension from “zip” to “exe”. If you ever wanna access the file just change the extension to “zip” again and unzip. (Make sure to delete the file afterwards)
I think 7-zip will let you view the archive through right clicking regardless of extension name. You may need to go into the Folder Options and disable hiding of known extensions
Properties then at the bottom and click hidden and apply... Also go to the desktop folder and click view and then go to the bottom then in the next click view hidden... Then right click on the file and make a shortcut with a keyboard combation so you can access it anytime you want and apply the changes...then you hit the key combation and can access the file without searching for it... Make sure to go back up at the view button and hide hidden files again...
Did you know that you can create an entire encrypted partition and hide that partition from “My Computer”? That way even if someone accidentally stumbles upon it, whatever you want to keep secure is still behind an encryption key
I've worked in IT for 45 years. I guarantee there is nothing you can tell me that I do not already know. On the other hand, I have forgotten more than you will ever know.
Been doing this since windows ME. Did you know you can also edit the folder script with custom code that will password protect an entire directory while using an image as a barricade to block you from viewing the content of the directory until the proper password is used? 🤣🤣🤣 Everyone always thinks they're the first to do something like this.
Right! That's what I was thinking as well, been doing this for a long. I guess it goes to show a lot of people just don't know their own devices like that anymore. There are people so young they don't even know about using command lines, let alone alt keys 🤷♂️
The alt+0160 command is only used to insert a non-breaking space in the folder title , not to create or set the invisible folder, which will still be visible by using the Windows+E command, or use the tree cmd.
now check the entire desktop for that "homework" folder you never know
Just press Ctrl+E while in the desktop and all the folders gets highlighted, including invisible ones.
@M_Ab_Kh yup.

On Windows 11, it will show a thin white outline where the icon is, so regardless which of the 4 blank icons you choose, the outline will always be shown, so it can't be really hidden, unless there's a relevant desktop background at that spot.
"There is them chicks" - absolutely love that punchline :D
Ah yes, the invisible homework folder.
everybody: 😂 the folder name!! me: that wallpaper tho 💀
Bro same
Me: is that a cockroach?
It's the real Nick Fury... 😳
Saammmme wallah 😂
You Sir are a genius.
Used this to hide my folders of cute animals on desktop over 20 years ago. No one has found them since.
this is like in school when we used to make a new folder, screen print, delete the folder and set the screen print as the background on the teachers computer, creating a folder that doesn't exist but always there
this is genius and idk why i never tought about it
@@pm-every-skne probably because you hate women's rights.
That’s exactly where you want to keep your chick 🐥 pictures 😂😂
... and where the chicks keep their cock 🐓 pictures 😎
It’s only invisible from your desktop but not invisible in file explorer lol. You might as well either use the hidden folder option in the property menu, hide it using terminal/CMD, or even turn a photo into a zip folder.
Best way to hide a game in your school pc
YAY Now I can lose things on my desk AND on my desktop!
Underrated comment.
The video: "Hold Alt + 0160"
Me somehow paying 100% of my attention to the roach on the desk: 👁️ 👄 👁️
adhd
I ve used it this trick in 2007, then i had put calendar gadget in front of the folder, to make sure that even if someone tried to select with CTRL + A, only the "revealed" folders would be showed
Now imagine your homie right-click on the explorer and see a folder without a name💀
rightclick folder > properties > hide
@@UnderTheRaiN. View > Options > show hidden elements
@@rageofzen2425 wow so smart ofcourse everyone looks under the carpet, its the first view kappa
@@UnderTheRaiN. much smart, very wow. Doge agrees
This guys trying to sound smart. Alt+0160 is just the ascii key for a nonbreaking space. So press space bar instead and you get the exact same result the fast and normal way. It doesn't get rid of the name...
Try ALT+0032 for exactly the same result, except this is actually ascii for nonprinting spacing character.
But yeah, press space. Or get 7-zip and password protect all your Korn videos using Keepass to generate a long complex password...
"They had us in the first half"
Save it in the windows folder with a technical sounding name and zip the file. Then change the extension from “zip” to “exe”.
If you ever wanna access the file just change the extension to “zip” again and unzip. (Make sure to delete the file afterwards)
I think 7-zip will let you view the archive through right clicking regardless of extension name. You may need to go into the Folder Options and disable hiding of known extensions
Or just password protect it
@@kipchickensout me with john the ripper:
@@thezealcloakerthatruinedyo3096 Me with a password that's halfway complex and not in the dictionary:
Properties then at the bottom and click hidden and apply... Also go to the desktop folder and click view and then go to the bottom then in the next click view hidden... Then right click on the file and make a shortcut with a keyboard combation so you can access it anytime you want and apply the changes...then you hit the key combation and can access the file without searching for it... Make sure to go back up at the view button and hide hidden files again...
Lol 'there's them chicks'

"my 10TB homework folder went missing bro"💀
10 TB! lmao
“My computer hid my homework”
Did you know that you can create an entire encrypted partition and hide that partition from “My Computer”? That way even if someone accidentally stumbles upon it, whatever you want to keep secure is still behind an encryption key
Average computer user won't understand how to do that.
mine greyed out
That cracked Vista wallpaper on your computer makes me go want to go back to the early 2010s, when such wallpapers were actually cool.
It's pretty cool in a nostalgic kinda way. Ppl like old shit nowadays. They think it makes the edgy, cultured and seasoned.
And now with high res screens!
“Now…reality can be whatever i want😈”
Kinda looking sus
this ain't funny.
i cant tell if the furry profile picture makes this worse or equally as bad as everything else

I've worked in IT for 45 years. I guarantee there is nothing you can tell me that I do not already know. On the other hand, I have forgotten more than you will ever know.
I guess I'm old-school, but I've always used ALT+255 instead of ALT+0160.
What’s the reason for that if you’re just making the icon blank anyway?
@@Haywood.Yablomee to make the folder name disappear too
@@rudyanzgeneziz1730 thanks
represent nothing!
@@frankthefkintank keycode maybe ?
My life flashed before my eyes when he clicked on the folder cause I was near my parents 💀
Don’t show the clip to your parents
Been doing this since windows ME. Did you know you can also edit the folder script with custom code that will password protect an entire directory while using an image as a barricade to block you from viewing the content of the directory until the proper password is used? 🤣🤣🤣 Everyone always thinks they're the first to do something like this.
Right! That's what I was thinking as well, been doing this for a long. I guess it goes to show a lot of people just don't know their own devices like that anymore.
There are people so young they don't even know about using command lines, let alone alt keys
🤷♂️
The alt+0160 command is only used to insert a non-breaking space in the folder title , not to create or set the invisible folder, which will still be visible by using the Windows+E command, or use the tree cmd.

Interesting. Very interesting.
