2. Place all the documents/files in it that you want to hide (I stored z.txt in it).
3. Copy any image of yours in it (I stored x.jpg in it).
4. Make a rar archive of all the files that you need to hide (I created one named z.rar).
5. Now open cmd (Start->Run->cmd)
6. Go to the folder’s location by typing cd location like for me it was cd C:a
7. Now just type the following command with name that corresponds to your file
