    So, you want to hide your folder in Windows 7 easily and without any software?
    Here's the trick:
    1. Go to Desktop, Create a New Folder
    2. Rename "New folder", delete it's name and press Alt+255
    3. Right-Click the folder and go to properties
    4. Under "Customize" tab, click "Change Icon" and choose blank icon

    5. Click Apply

    Voila..Now you have a hidden folder.
    Be sure to remember it's position in your desktop :)
