So, you want to hide files from others like your boss? Here's how to
do it. You (and the person you're sending the secret to) only need
WinRAR and you're both ready to send secret messages!
1. Select the JPG file you want to use, like a picture.
2. Select the file you want to hide, for example a TXT file.
3. Put both files in the same directory, something like "C:/hide"
4. Select the file you want to hide. Right click the file and
select "Add to archive...". Give the archive a name like
"my_secret.rar" and press "OK". You'll now find a RAR archive with the
just given name in the same directory.
5. Next, open command prompt (Go to "Start" and select "Run". Enter
the word "cmd" and press "OK". You'll now see a black box which is the
command prompt).
6. Enter the next line to go to the folder where you have the
secret files and press "Enter".
cd c:/hide
7. Now enter the next line to combine the files and press "Enter".
*Note* "hidefiles.jpg" needs to be replaced with the name of
your JPG file.
"copy /b hidefiles.jpg + my_secret.rar
secretimage.jpg"
You'll now get a message in command prompt that one file is copied.
Close command prompt.
8. You're done now! Go to the directory in your explorer to find
"secretimage.jpg". When you open it, you'll see the picture. But when
you right-click the file, select "Open with.." and select WinRAR,
you'll see the file that you wanted to hide.
Don't forget to tell your friends you want to show this hidden message
to open it with WinRAR. Good luck!
