Open Control Panel > User Accounts > Look under "Make Changes to your account" You can also put your files in a folder, go to the Properties of the folder and change its Attributes to Hidden under the 'General' tab. -- Andre Blog: http://adacosta.spaces.live.com My Vista Quickstart Guide: http://adacosta.spaces.live.com/blog...3DB!9709.entry "Joe" <Joe@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:9609B125-BF43-48DB-B7DD-E378516E16CE@xxxxxx Quote: >I have some personal things that i wold like to keep on my computer but i > want to be the only one to view them. > please tell me how to do this > > thanks |

Your personal folders are not shared unless you specifically make them accessible. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "Joe" <Joe@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:9609B125-BF43-48DB-B7DD-E378516E16CE@xxxxxx Quote: >I have some personal things that i wold like to keep on my computer but i > want to be the only one to view them. > please tell me how to do this > > thanks |

| | Re: looking how to hide a file on my computer Don't let other people use your Vista login. Create other user accounts for them to use, and password protect your account.
