Easy Way to Hide your Files in a JPG Image File

There are several ways to hide your important files, but these methods are either time taking or needs some specialised techniques. But there is a very simple technique by which you can hide your files inside a JPG image file in a minute or even less than that. Files to be hidden can be in any format an image, pdf file, office document, txt file, exe files or any other. Basically we will put a compressed form(.zip or .rar) of files(in hidden form) in the JPG file. Here is the step by step procedure.

1. Put all the files that you want to hide and the image file(in which you will hide the files) in the C:\ drive.
2. For this step, you will need WinZip or WinRAR or CAM unzip installed on your computer. You can easily download any of these from net and get it installed on your system in minutes.Suppose you use a .rar archive. Now, just make a .rar file in C:\ drive (say secret.rar) with all the files(to be hidden except the image) in this archive.
3. Now,open command prompt(start->run->cmd->press enter).Go to the root directory using "CD\" command. Now use the given command and press enter : "copy /b image.JPG + secret.rar image.jpg", Where image.JPG is the image file. If you get the message like " 1 file(s) copied" (1 or any other number),then you are done. Your image file now contains all your files but in hidden format.

For getting your files back from the image file, just right click on the image file and click "open with", and open with WinRAR(or WinZip,whatever you are using).Now, simply extract the files and you are done.
