SSH in Windows

One might ask "why do you need ssh?" And if you don't know what ssh is, learn it? It's very useful, you'll thank me someday.

The problem I was having is that ssh is shipped with Unix operating systems such as Linux and iOS but not on Windows. What if I need to securely access my files on my Windows computer, what will I do? No worries you can have ssh on on Windows but it takes extra work. You'll need to install cygwin a Unix-like environment and command-line interface for Windows. Click Me for detailed instructions on how to set it up.

Hide a file in Windows

There various ways to make a file hidden in windows but the example below will make it really hidden, it's like magic.

open CMD

To select file:
C:\Users\Fel\Dektop>attrib [filename] +h +s

The file will disappear. You cannot find it in the GUI or the CMD when dir command is used. It also will not show if you have the "show hidden files" selected in the folder options. (make sure you hide it first to make it work)

Now for the prestige (bring it back)

C:\Users\Fel\Dektop>attrib [filename] -h -s
