This tutorial will guide you to Hide/Unhide your files on your computer without using any software. Essentially, you are creating a folder with it's own password, which is useful, especially if you have confidential files you need hide, because you don't want anyone to see them but you. This isn't recommended if you don't navigate your computer easily.

ECHO OFF
title Folder Locker
if EXIST "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" Go to UNLOCK
if NOT EXIST Locker Go to MDLOCKER
:CONFIRM
echo Are you sure you want to Lock the folder(Y/N)
set/p "cho=>"
if %cho%==Y Go to LOCK
if %cho%==y Go to LOCK
if %cho%==n Go to END
if %cho%==N Go to END
echo Invalid choice.
Go to CONFIRM
:LOCK
ren Locker "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
attrib +h +s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
echo Folder locked
