hello all,
I looked up this post, but for some reasons I wanna search for more

I wanna hide files in windows 7, maybe kernel mode, but any means necessary. Maybe I wanna hook NtQueryDirectoryFile, but I don't know how to call it, and filter the results.

Thank you all

What I have tried:

I tried to understand the code from here but I'm not familiar with the syntax

I think the link you posted has used some C++ programming based frameworks.This article best suites your need.

thanks for the reply but, I can't understand it, too many header, filing up notepad++ tabs. Can I ask where's the main filehider in that article? And I'm not familiar with that syntax

Thanks

That's probably because the code is in C++ - and if you don't understand C++ and the way the Windows works, you aren't going to succeed in this effort. You need to hook into the operating system, and really does mean that C++ is pretty much your only option.

So either learn C++ and advanced windows programming, or abandon this idea: you need to have "Expert" level experience to even start with something like this. Unless you know exactly what you are doing, you will crash your computer - possibly to the point where it needs a reformat - just trying to debug your code.
