 Well you have a folder that you want hidden but it’s too much trouble
to go into the file settings each and every time and showing hidden files and
folders. You don’t have time for that and you just want something simple!

Well here’s the
solution.  Create a new folder and hold alt+0160 while renaming the
folder.  This will cause the name to disappear!

Unfortunately now you have
a picture of a folder with no name so it makes it pretty out in the open.
Anyone can access it so it makes no sense to hide the name.  I have a
solution for this to. 

Here is what you do. 

Right click on the folder and then click on
properties:

Then
you click on the tab that says Customize:

After that you’ll need to
click on the button that says Change Icon:

Finally
you’ll need to choose a picture that best fits: they are all invisible but they
do different things.  Try logging in and out to see if you can still see
the folder.  I find that having the background black keeps things
invisible on startup so you don’t have the chance of someone seeing the
folder.  Changing the background after login does not show the folder:

Now
after this is all said and done you can apply the changes and this is what you
will have:

*NOTE*  The folder can
only be seen if selected.  The box does not show if not selected.

For those of you that need
a keyboard layout of where your keys are here is a picture I put in paint of a keyboard.  The red circles are the keys.
While holding alt the entire time press 1060 and then let go of alt.  Then
press enter. *NOTE* The two circles represent the amount of times you hit that
key. My apologies for not putting in this tutorial on how to use the keyboard
and for making my previous tutorial vague.

Here’s how to delete the
“Hidden” Folder

My “Hidden” Folder is on my
desktop so what I want to do is set the
command to be this:

ren
“C:UsersAdministratorDesktop(Alt+0160)” “Folder”

Press enter

Make sure that you type
ALT+0160 as Holding the alt key down and then typing those numbers.  No
parenthesis.

So here’s the plan: over the next few years, a series of missions is planned to return to the Moon.

The first are up there now: Nasa’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and LCROSS - a mission designed to slam into the Moon’s surface so scientists can study the resulting plume of debris.

After that would come MoonLite - an ambitious UK mission being developed to fire penetrators into the surface. A few years later, there’ll be robots and finally, by 2020 or so, humans.

If that’s all to happen, quite apart from the political commitments, there are going to need to be a great deal of technical developments.

Take MoonLite, for example. It consists of a lunar orbiting spacecraft and a series of missiles, or penetrators, which will be fired into the Moon to create a global network of seismic monitoring stations.

The penetrators themselves are based on military missile technology - a classic example of “swords into ploughshares”. But getting them to land in the right place, the right way up - and still work, is a complex undertaking.

Quite apart from its goal to investigate lunar geology (which is perhaps a worthy enough ambition in itself), the mission necessitates developing a communications system, electronics and guidance systems. These will, argue MoonLite’s backers, provide technology benefits, jobs and commercial opportunities.

Sir Martin Sweeting speaks for the mission’s prime contractors, Surrey Satellite Technology Limited (SSTL): “Certainly from experience, the challenge of space throws up benefits which get spun back down into other areas of our more everyday existence,” he said. “This is, in the longer term, a commercial opportunity.”

However, I’m unapologetic in my belief that the primary reason we should go back to the Moon is because, as humans, it’s what we do.

We explore, we investigate and ultimately, we establish a foothold.

Bleak and extreme: Antarctica has produced extraordinary insights

The exploration of the Moon is maybe best compared with the expeditions to Antarctica.

They are both uncompromising, extreme environments that, at first, would appear to have little to offer to human advancement.

As it’s turned out, Antarctica has proved to be vital for scientific discovery.

It has taught us about our atmosphere, oceans and climate. 18th and 19th century explorers were desperate to discover that last continent - in the 21st century the Moon provides an even greater challenge.

Many of these missions, including MoonLite, are far from assured. And there is no shortage of people suggesting we’re better spending money elsewhere. But who can fail to be inspired when they look up at the Moon on a clear night?

Perhaps the most important thing about this anniversary is not that we’ve been to the Moon, it’s that we’re now going back.
