In this video, I will show how to hide files and folders in Windows without using any third party software or applications. This is done by using a " . " directory and a " .. " directory. These directories becomes very hard to access by a normal user. This technique was demonstrated by Mark bagget in his presentation "Windows 0wned by default" at Derbycon 2013 where he showed how one can use this technique to save malwares in a computer.
I have covered this in 3 steps:
STEP 1: How to create a ".." and a " . " directory
STEP 2: How to Navigate into these directory and save your files.
STEP 3: How to DELETE these directories.
