Create Nameless Files or Folders

How to Create Nameless Files and Folders ?

Here is a trick to make your folders virtually nameless..

Click on any file or folder you want to make nameless. Then press F2 or Right Click -> Rename. Now let the text in the Name field of the folder be selected and Press ALT + 255. (The 255 must be keyed in from the NUMPAD)

The folder has become nameless now. Well the trick is ALT+255 is the ascii value of the a character which appears to be invisible in windows

****************************************

Now if you want to creat multiple nameless files and folders in the same directory that may cause a problem. But you can create another nameless file or folder in the same directory. You will have to rename the file with 2 spaces. Just follow the steps given below to successfully create another nameless file or folder.

Step 1 : Select any file or folder whom you want to assign no name.
Step 2 : Now right click on it and choose rename option.
Step 3 : Now the main part, press and hold the alt key and while holding the Alt key type numbers 255from the numpad. Now without doing anything else,leave and again hold alt key and press 255.
Step 4 : Press enter and you will have second nameless file in the same directory.
Step 5 : Repeat step 3 and 4 to create as many nameless files or folders as you want in the same directory.

Note : you can replace 255 with 0160 and do the above trick.
