If u r having any material like important docs and u r afraid about it . Dont worry, windows XP

provides (not officialy ) a utility by which u can hide urs one or more drives.

Here is the step by step procedure how to hide any partition/drive :

1. Go to Start > run > type “diskpart”.
A DOS window will appear with following discription.
DISKPART>

2. Then type “list volume”

The result will look like : ——

Volume ### Ltr Label Fs Type Size Status Info
————— — ——– —- —— —- —— —-

Volume 0 F CD-ROM
Volume 1 C Programmea NTFS Partition 15GB Healthy System
Volume 2 D Softwares NTFS Partition 20GB Healthy
Volume 3 E Documents NTFS Partition 30GB Healthy
Volume 4 F Abi NTFS Partition 10GB Healthy

3. Suppose u wanna hide drive E then type “select volume 3″.(without quotes)

Then a message will appear in same winwods { Volume 3 is the selected volume}

4. Now type “remove letter E”
Now a message will come { Diskpart Removed the Drive letter }

Diskpart will remove the letter .Windows XP is not having capabilty to identify the unkown

volume.

Your Data is safe now from all unauthorised users.
To access the content of hidden Drive repeat the process mentioned above. But in 4th step replace

” remove” to “assign”
i mean type “assign letter E”

Never hide C:/ drive… otherwise ur system will not work …..
