Hide folders without software.

Now everyone knows how to hide folders manually, and opening hidden folders is not that difficult. There are some secure files on the computer that can be dangerous if accessed by unauthorized persons. But if you can hide folders through commands without any software, then it doesn’t seem bad.

Today, I will share a trick through which you can easily make folders invisible.

1. Create a folder on any of your drives and name it (optionally) abc
2. Now open Command Prompt from Start Menu (Start-Run-cmd).
3. Type: attrib +s +h C:\abc

There will be a space before the (+) sign.

And press enter.
4. This command will make your folder invisible.

And if you click on Start/Control Panel/Folder Options/View hidden files and folders, it will not be visible. You can try.
5. To make it visible, type in cmd again-
attrib -s -h C:\abc

How to increase space on the “C drive” after updating Windows

Many times, you may have updated your Windows 8 or 8.1 operating system to Windows 10.

Like many others, you too have faced a problem. The problem is that along with Windows 10, an old version of Windows named “Windows Old” remains on your C drive. As a result, the space has decreased.

However, the easiest and safest way to delete the folder is shown below:

Go to your PC’s Start menu and search for Disk Cleanup.
Open the Disk Cleanup tab.
Then you need to specify the C: drive.
Now select the Previous Windows Installation and click on the OK button.

Stop shortcuts from appearing on the homepage when installing apps on Android.

Widely used Android phones are now the most popular in the world. And the popularity of Android phones is not only based on their features but also on the Play Store, a store of thousands of apps. When a user installs an app from the Play Store, it is seen that there is a shortcut to the app on the phone’s home page, which is a source of annoyance for many. Now you can solve this problem yourself.

To do this, open the Play Store app on your Android phone.

Then go to settings. From there, click on ‘add icon to home screen’ and uncheck it. If this is checked, a shortcut for any application installed will be created on the home screen.

If the add icon option is unchecked, a shortcut will not be created on the home screen when you install an app unless you want it to.
