Tutorial: How to hide files in a Picture

In this post i will explain you how to hide your sensitive or important data in a picture,though it can be hided in videos,music also but in this post i will explain how to hide it in PICTURES.

So lets get started >>
And i think its better to hide files in pictures(images) then using a folder locker like softwares

WHAT YOU NEED 

1. A picture to hide data in 
2. Compression Software (like WinZip, Winrar, 7zip. etc.)
3. Your sensitive file which you need to hide
4. Command prompt (Already present on your PC)

Now lets start :

1. Make a folder in C drive. I will name it "abc". so location of this folder would be "C:\abc" . 

         
                                   
2. Now place the file you want to hide in the picture in this folder(abc) .

3. Compress this file with the compression software .(Here i will use Winrar ).
Now copy and paste the picture in which you want to hide data in this folder i.e "C:\abc".

4. So now i have in the "abc" folder ,a picture named "picture.bmp" and a compressed file called "abc.rar" .

Let me clear once again, here 

abc=is the folder which contain both the picture in which you want to hide a file and the file you want to hide

picture.bmp= is the picture in which you want to hide your sensitive data .

abc.rar= is the compressed data file which contains your data which you want to hide ;the data is compressed with the help of compression software as explained aboce like winrar and winzip etc...

5. THE MAIN STEP 

Open cmd by going to Start>Run>type 'cmd' OR  simply press "windows key+R "this will open run box there type cmd in the box.

This will open Command Prompt.

Now type the following in the black window which comes up 

cd/

Press Enter and then type :

cd abc

Now type the below command,

copy /b picture.bmp + abc.rar newpicture.bmp

If you have followed the instructions properly then you would now get a new picture "newpicture.bmp" in the folder "abc".

Now you can delete your old picture and the file which you wanted to be hidden as the file is now hidden in "newpicture.bmp" .

Now the point is how to get the hidden file back from the picture....

To extract the files you put in the picture, open up your compression software and select the picture with the files inside it and extract them. A new folder will be created with the same name as the picture, and it will contain the files you hid.

And these pictures can even be uploaded to social networking sites where it will work as a normal picture but you friend or colleague can download it and extract the data ,and for others it would still remain a picture.
