2.Press and hold Alt key,Using numpad, enter the combination 0160 (u must enter the numbers using numpad only).
3.If u did it correctly, u must get a folder with no name.
4.Right click on the folder,go to properties, select customize tab,At the bottom of the window, u can see change icon option, click on it.Then u wil come across a new window, in that u can see some blank space as icons.select one of them n click apply.Thatz it. ur folder wil be invisible now...
