As mentioned, it’s important to change the icon to blank as well. 7 provides this as an option under the “Change Icon” button in the properties, not sure about XP or Vista.

If you want to increase hiding this from prying eyes, it might be wise to mark it as hidden and not show hidden folders by default. If you want to further protect the folder/file, change permissions so that only you can see or access it. Be sure to do this on the folder and any files inside of it.

It’s not bulletproof, but it’ll keep away novices and is much less work than creating a hidden partition. Hope this helps someone.

just naming blank is not enought to hide it, the add on to this trick is to then change the icon of the folder to a blank also. making the whole folder invisible.
how ever it does show in things like explorer but its still a good way to hide those secret files from your mom hahaha

guys having problems, you must be computer illiterate to not ba able to delete a renamed file/folder.

Hi Nolan, I have created this nameless folder in my XP computer and I can delete the nameless folder created without any trouble.

Can you specify in which Operating System you tried this nameless folder trick.
