You will store many files on your computer, some of which are fine if you see them, but some of which you may not want to be seen at all. Just enter a few keywords in File Explorer to browse any file, but thankfully you can make some simple customizations to hide certain files or folders. This time we have helped you sort out ways to hide personal secrets, especially those who share computers. How to hide files on Windows 11? Hide files and folders in File Explorer If you just need to hide a single file or folder and don’t care if someone uses the search on the Windows taskbar to find the content (we’ll fix this later, don’t worry), You have a very simple method to hide files and folders in Windows 11 File Explorer in no time. Open a File Explorer window. Right-click the file you want to hide and select Content from the menu. Then in the “General” tab (the page that is initially displayed), check “Hide” and click OK. Next, the system will pop up a window asking you to hide only the selected folder or apply this change to this folder, subfolders and files inside it. After selecting, click OK to apply the change. View hidden files and folders Just because files are hidden from view doesn’t mean they won’t be found in File Explorer at all. Since I taught you how to hide it above, I will teach you how to view all hidden content. Open the File Explorer window. Click “View” in the top toolbar. Click “Show” at the bottom and check “Hidden Items”. Although you can use keyword searches to prevent File Explorer from displaying hidden files and folders, you can make additional settings to prevent those hidden files and folders from being displayed when searching. Open a File Explorer window. Click “…” on the toolbar above, then click “Options.” In the next options window, switch to the “View” tab, and then in the advanced settings, make sure it is set to “Don’t show hidden files, folders, or drives” and click OK. Hide files and folders from settings One of the easiest ways to find files and folders in Windows 11 is to search by typing the file name or file extension into the search box, but you can also train your operating system to stop searching. Content you don’t want to be viewed. Here’s how: Open the Settings app, switch to the “Privacy & Security” tab, and click “Search Windows.” Switch “Find My Files” to “Enhanced”. (The default is traditional) Then click “Add Excluded Folder” below, and the search window will open. Just select the ones you don’t want to be searched and add them.

Internet for everyone? Today, this remains a dream that seems unattainable. According to a recent study by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), a third of the world’s population, or 2.6 billion people, remains without Internet access. Small reason for satisfaction: in one year, around 100 million additional people have had access to the Web. That said, more will be needed to completely eradicate digital deserts by 2030, as the UN wishes.

This Sunday, the United Nations Broadband Commission called on States and operators to mobilize more. The challenge is first of all to provide accessible and inexpensive Internet everywhere across the globe. But also to provide training so that the populations “have the skills and knowledge to use this connectivity”. To achieve its goals, the commission calls for “a high-level public-private partnership, which encourages digital cooperation”.

Many obstacles

“We must build a digital future that is inclusive, affordable, sustainable, secure and people-centered,” said Carlos Slim, the commission’s co-chair. There should be no digital desert in the world, and no one should be excluded from connectivity. People have the right to enjoy a safe, productive and affordable online experience. Broadband should improve everyone’s quality of life. »

Digital exclusion actually has consequences for education, employment and economic development. It contributes to further widening inequalities. Two main obstacles are holding back progress: populations that are still not connected are also the hardest to reach and there are difficulties in moving from simple access to regular and easy access. Other obstacles are often underestimated such as connection speeds that are too slow, prices that are too high for equipment and subscriptions, lack of digital culture or even cultural and language barriers, but also gender discrimination and sometimes simple lack of access to electricity.
