How to Create Invisible Folder in Windows 11

To create an invisible folder in Windows 11, you can follow these steps:

Create a new folder by right-clicking on your desktop and selecting "New" > "Folder".
Give the folder a name of your choice.
Right-click on the folder and select "Properties".
In the Properties window, go to the "Customize" tab.
Click on the "Change Icon" button.
Scroll through the available icons until you find a blank icon (a single pixel or blank space).
Select the blank icon and click "OK" to close the Change Icon window.
Click "Apply" and then "OK" to close the Properties window.
Your folder will now have an invisible icon, but it will still be visible as a regular folder.
To make the folder completely invisible, right-click on your desktop and select "Personalize".
Go to the "Themes" tab and select "Desktop icon settings".
Uncheck the box next to your invisible folder to remove it from your desktop.
Click "Apply" and then "OK" to save your changes.

Now, your invisible folder is created and can only be accessed by typing its name in the File Explorer's address bar or by creating a shortcut.
