Hiding Your Files In A Pic

Requirement: WinRAR



1. Collect all the files which you wish to hide.



2. Place them in any folder. [I chose E:\NF].



3. Make a RAR archive [ I made qwerty.rar ] in the same folder [ here E:\NF] and add all the files that you want to hide in this archive.



4. Take a JPEG picture file [ I have taken rose.jpg ].



5. Paste this JPEG picture file in your folder/directory [ e.g.- I posted rose.jpg in E:\NF ].




6. Go to Start > Run and type cmd to open Command Prompt [ Alternatively, you can open the Command Prompt from the Start Menu ].




7. Make your directory as your working directory.
e.g. – My Command Prompt displayed  H:\Documents and Settings\HHH>


The steps are-


• H:\Documents and Settings\HHH> E:


• E:\>cd NF


• E:\NF>



8. Type :


COPY /B rose.jpg + qwerty.rar hide.jpg






NOTE- rose.jpg is the picture you selected


qwerty.rar is the archive in which you have hidden your files


hide.jpg is the new file that contains both the above-mentioned files


/B is a switch indicating a binary file



9. Open your folder [ like I will open NF in drive E: ].



10. You will get a file hide.jpg [ or of any other name, if you had selected a different name].



11. Double clicking it will display the photograph.


12. To see the hidden files simply open it with WinRAR.




THIS TRICK WORKS IN XP BUT I AM NOT SURE ABOUT VISTA.


IF IT DOES, PLEASE LET ME KNOW ABOUT IT.
