02. Super Hide the files Using Command Prompt
All of us want to hide some files, movies and the stuff we want from others. Many of us make the attributes of the file as hidden and make it invisible through the folder options. But every computer user knows it. I know on using other’s computer almost all of us enable showing hidden files to see what secret content he has, Don’t you ? But there exists a trick with which you can hide your content from others. Let me give you that……….
Well, If you are a command line lover, then I do not need to tell you about this. If you are not, you are welcome here. There is a command called attrib in the Command Prompt in Windows. Operation of this command is to show the attributes of the file like read only, system file ,hidden and many more. With this command you can set and change the attributes of the complete folder and the file too.
You need to traverse to the directory where your content is saved, say it is the folder A.
Then,
I will type “attrib A +s +h +a” to make it super hidden.
For, accessing A there are two methods,
1st- reset the attributes of the file/folder by the command ”attrib A -a -s -h”
2nd – Traverse to the directory where the your file /folder is located, in the explorer address click, if you are using Windows 7 you will see that the address has changed to older WIndows style path, here you only need to extend the address by \A where A is the name of the folder. If it is a file, enter its name with its extension.
I prefer using second as after 1st time, your manually entered address gets into the history and you can use it when you want. You can also create the batch file to automate the 1st step.
Now, comes the explanation, by apping these attributes, you actully change the file/folder into a system folder having special securoty apart form the hidden files.
Remmeber, If someone enables viewing system files, you will be caught….
But, not everyone likes to see the system files to temper with it, specially in Windows.
So, Try IT.
03.Change the color of the Command Prompt
If by mistake you took my last post seriously about learning the commands of the command prompt, then you really do not need to read this stuff. I was searching something in google, I visited a blog where the author had written about “MATRIX COMMAND PROMPT”, it was a catchy headline, I visited the article, the author told about the green window of the matrix movie and he provided a bat file where he changed the font color and generated some random number. It was really a miss. Okay I am here to tell you how to give a new life to your cmd if you love working with it.
There is a command called color incommand prompt used to change the color of the fonts in Command Prompt. From help menu of the color command you can get the color codes.
For example if you write
color 1
it will change the white font color to blue.
After trying all the color codes you can get the one you like. But this is not enough, you can change the background color too.
For this, you need to right click the title bar of the Command Prompt. From here you need to select its properties.
From the properties windows that will be opened, U need to select the colors tab.
Here, u will see the Screen Background, Select the desired background color.
Congratulations, you have given your Cmd a new look.

07.Hide Files or Folders Using Command Prompt
The most important thing is that, once hidden with this method, the files/folders cannot be viewed by any search options even if you click "Show All Hidden Files and Folders".
Hiding the most wanted files and folders is very important nowadays and it's really a tedious job too. In order to make this tedious job an easy one, i'm going to deliver you a the trick now.
For Example: You have a folder named "collegephotos" and this folder is stored in (Disk Drive E). You think that it should not be seen by strangers who use your PC.
For that you need to follow the following instructions
08.Command Prompt on Right-Click
Many computer users, specially the programmers, need to launch a command prompt window every once in a while to execute some dos/shell commands. The problem is, when a command prompt window launched, the default path is normally the system path or the user profile's path. The users will then have to do all the "cd" commands to change the directories to the path he/she wants.
This trick shows you how to add an option called "Command Prompt" when you right-click on a folder in Windows. With this option, a Command Prompt Window will launch and its current directory will be the path to the folder you've selected.
Use this trick at your own risk.
Here's what you'll get:
The Solution
You can either edit your registry OR download the registry file and apply it on your computer.
Method I. Manually edit the registry:
With the CD-ROM available on almost every computer nowaday, floppy drives become a history. However, for those who find computers a hobby, might run into a situation when they need to create a bootable CD that works just like the old floppy disk. Unfortunately, to do this, you still need a floppy drive to read your bootup floppy disk. Wait, the good news is, you can just down load a bootable ISO image and burn it to a CD. And even better, we have a copy of an ISO image right here. You can download this image and follow the instructions below, or you can do a web search for more options.
The information on this article will guide you step-by-step how to create a bootable CD/DVD, either using a bootup floppy disk or a boot image file. You will end up having a bootable CD or DVD, with CD-ROM driver supported, that could startup your PC and bring up the command prompt. This is going to be a good starting point, then you can run other utilities such as hard drive ghost, etc..
Many current CD/DVD burning software support the bootable feature. If you already have your favorite burning software, look around to find the bootable option. For this article, I will use the steps and sample screen-shots with the burning tool called Nero.
You will need a boot disk (floppy) or a bootable ISO image to start. If you don't have one, you can download an ISO image here. This boot image is Windows-98 based, which means it uses the Windows 98 bootup sequence, which should do what we need. You can also download different boot disk images from the internet. I've found bootdisk.com has a very good collection.
I assume that you already have Nero installed. Also, it is highly recommended to use a rewritable disc so you can redo the process if you have to.

A true computer genius knows all about commands of Command Prompt. You can guess its importance by the fact that though a better Graphical User Interface is being provided by the Microsoft in Windows but still Windows have Command Prompt in it. It enables you a lot of tricks by creating batch files, some hacking also. I am not going to tell you how you can use Command Prompt for hacking but I am here to tell you how to have a good command at Command Prompt. I will tell U way how U can get the complete information about a command in Cmd.
Command Prompt needs a lot of your memory so that you can easily remember many commands of the Command Prompt. It has a lot of Commands that need to be used and practiced by you. Now, first thing that you must know for having a good command over command prompt is of course is the list of commands that Command Prompt provides.
You can get it by typing only help in the command prompt.It will give the list of commands.
Secondly, you need to select a command that you want to know. For example, I want to know about net command. It is a great command whose utility I will tell you some other day. So, I want to know about net command, I will write “help net” in the command Window. Sometimes the help section of the particular command is quite large. Then, it becomes quite painful to see all the details of a particular command. For this, there is also a way, you need to write
help command-name |more
After all if you feel lazy to type then I have something for you.
You need to write “commad-name /?”
That’s all my friend.
And of course, do not forget about Internet, the Ultimate Knowledge Source, you will get more from here than the command Window.

My
last Instructable with the Matrix was only with the letters, but this
one is a batch file that uses numbers, and looks more realistic. The
real Matrix used Japanese letters and other symbols, but this one just
uses numbers in different orders and sizes and it looks more realistic
from my last Instruct-able.
It is pretty easy so lets get to it.
It is pretty easy so lets get to it.
Step 1What Technology do I need?
You need:
- PC with command prompt
- The notepad application
- The code I will give you
Step 2The Code
Ok, to enter the code, you have to open the Notepad.
Enter this code:
@echo off
color 0a
:top
echo %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random%
goto top
Enter this code:
@echo off
color 0a
:top
echo %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random% %random%
goto top
- Make sure the %random% is in one line across the screen, don't let it go to another line.
Step 3Save it as .bat
Save the notepad file on to your Dekstop as a .bat file.
Save it as:
matrix.bat
You have to have the .bat at the end for this to work, because .bat is batch and batch is used with the command prompt.
Save it as:
matrix.bat
You have to have the .bat at the end for this to work, because .bat is batch and batch is used with the command prompt.
Step 4Open it and let it run
Open it on your desktop and let it run!!!
Show it to your friends and watch them be amazed.
Show it to your friends and watch them be amazed.
Step 5Making Screen Bigger
If you want to make it full screen, right click on the top blue bar, and click properties.
Choose layout, and change the height and width of the window size to 300. If you want to make the 300 default, right click on the top bar again, choose defaults, choose layout again, and make the height and width 300.
Keep in mind:
- If you make the screen bigger, you will have to add more: %random% to the code.
Have Fun!

- Launch Nero Burning ROM
- At the New Compilation Window, select "CD" from the drop-down menu and select "CD-ROM (Boot)" for CD, (or select "DVD" and "DVD-ROM (Boot)" for DVD)
- If you use a bootup floppy disk, insert the floppy disk and select "Bootable logical drive..."
- If you use an image file, select "Image File" then click "Browse" to browse to the image.
At the "Open" Window, browse to the location where you saved the boot image and choose the image you wish to use and click "Open" (you might need to change the "Files of type" to "All Files" in order to see files with different extensions.)
- Click "New" at the New Compilation Window.
- Nero New Compilation Window disappears and Nero brings up its main
screen where you can add more files to the CD/DVD if you wish. For
example, adding a "ghost" folder with the file "ghost.exe" as follows.
Once you're done adding all the files you wish to, click on the "Burn" icon.
- At the "Burn Compilation" Window, select "Burn"!
