K4rMa Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 A small trick to hide text inside your text file using command prompt, but this trick works only on NTFS file system. Steps to hide text in a Notepad * Open your command prompt Start–>Run type cmd * Move to any destination for example let us assume D:\> drive * Type the below code in your command prompt * D:\>notepad syshacks.txt:hidden * syshacks notepad save * syshacks notepad hidden * Write some data and save the file. * Move to D:\> and open syshacks.txt you cannot see no data in the file syshacks.txt. * To retrieve the hidden data open command prompt and type the same command. * D:\>notepad syshacks.txt:hidden * Notepad will open syshacks.txt file with hidden data Quote
K4rMa Posted June 1, 2009 Author Posted June 1, 2009 what is NTFS? NTFS is the standard file system of Windows NT, including its later versions Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.[4] NTFS supersedes the FAT file system as the preferred file system for Microsoft’s Windows operating systems. NTFS has several improvements over FAT and HPFS (High Performance File System) such as improved support for metadata and the use of advanced data structures to improve performance, reliability, and disk space utilization, plus additional extensions such as security access control lists (ACL) and file system journaling. The file system specification is a trade secret,[5][6][7] although it can be licensed commercially from Microsoft through their Intellectual Property licensing program.[8][9] ;S Quote
