The title seems to be quirky and quite wierd as well but believe me its possible. You can easily hide your important files within a picture in such a way that the file becomes nearly impossible to track.

Although this windows trick is not a new one and a lot of you might already know about it but for those who don't, this trick can sometimes come in great use.

The file you want to save inside any image can be of any format for example : .exe, .text, .avi or any other. In order to perform this trick you will need WinRar, which is most widely used software for compressing files. So i already assume that everyone reading this tutorial has already got it.

And here is this trick goes:

a) Open your C drive make a folder called "MIracleSTudios" Now put both files files you want hide and the imge in which you want to hide the file in this folder.

b) Now select both files and right click them to make a winrar format of both files. Performing this action will produce a new files named "Secret.rar".

c) Now go to the start button in your window's, initiate run and type cmd in the text box. Now type "cd.." and press enter and repet this action again . Type "cd miraclestudios" to open the folder ( Where all the files are storied ).

d) Now type a new command "copy / image.jpg + secret.rar secured,jpg" and press enter .

e) The new picture file secured.jpg is a image which stores all the files in the folder.

f) In order access the files stored in the image " secured.jpg", just change the extension from "jpg to rar" and extract all your hidden files.

Benefits of knowing this trick :

a) Be aware of virus threats : Most of hackers use this technique in order to disperse their virus programmes on the desktop of a user. Now since you already know this trick,you can easily save your self by ignoring all the images you have been recieving from some unsolicited resource, as you know very well that one of those images can wreck a havoc on the health of your "Personal Computer".

b) Enjoy Privacy: This is probably most secured way of hiding your delinquint files in case you share your computer with your family members at home and you don't want them to scratch in to one of your hidden files.
