How to make a software in c# that hides a given folder and also can unhide.

You are going to have to provide more detail than that.

Do you mean that you want to write something that will modify a folders file system properties such that the file becomes hidden?

Yes, i want to modify file or folder so that it becomes hidden.

Hi wakil,

I hope this is what you wanted.

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Collections;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Data;
using System.IO;
using System.Text;


private void btnHide_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{

    string path = @"c:\nalla.txt";

    if (!File.Exists(path))
    {
        File.Create(path);
    }
    File.SetAttributes(path, FileAttributes.Hidden);
    MessageBox.Show("The " + path + "file is hidden.");

}

private void btnShow_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    string path = @"c:\nalla.txt";

    if (!File.Exists(path))
    {
        File.Create(path);
    }

        File.SetAttributes(path, FileAttributes.Normal);
        MessageBox.Show("The " + path + "file is no longer hidden.");
    }
}
