How To Hide Files In JPG Images

Welcome to my tutorial on how to hide files in JPEG images. In this tutorial i will be using a file named "Youwin.txt" and an image named "

Now you might ask, what might this guide be useful for? Well you can hide files so that nobody will ever suspect that they're hidden. Or you could just show off to all your friends. :)

1. Move your files you want to combine in a new folder, name this folder Hidden. Move this folder to your C drive, so now it is C:/Hidden.

2. Add the file you want to hide into a new RAR archive (in our example named Youwin.txt.rar).

3. WinRar creates the archive in the folder where the other files are located.

4. Open Command Prompt (Start -> Run..., type cmd and press Enter).

5. Go to the folder where your files are located, in this case C:\Hidden by using the cd command.

6. Now type copy /b untitled-9.jpg + Youwin.txt.rar dragon.jpg where unitled-9.jpg is the original picture, Youwin.txt.rar is the file that will be hidden, and dragon.jpg is the file which will contain both (make up a name for this file). If you're having trouble, take a look at the format used in the picture below.

7. Now if you go back to the folder, you'll see a new image called dragon.jpg.

Now you are done hiding the file into the image. This next part of the guide will show you how to open the hidden files.

8. Try opening the file with WinRar (select All files).

9. Now you can see the Youwin.txt that is hidden in the picture.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial.
+rep is appreciated.

:D
So that's how you did it.
Naice. ^^

Stenography is also pretty neat. Maybe I'll get around to writing a guide for it :D

Nice guide though, :]

Yeah, that's how i did it. :)

Thanks.

Yeah it is pretty neat. I got this idea from back in the day when Justin held that contest, where you had to find the message in the image. :)

;O

I remember that :] lol

Thanks for this..Youre not going to keylog me, are you xD:P

Can't upload to most image sites because they check the MIME.

You're welcome.

Also, no, there's no possible way i can keylogg you, it's just a guide.

Well you can upload it in photobucket. :)

any 1 knows a virus free keylogger? that could be nice with this new knowledge for me ,=P

omg that is so fucking sexy...

People seem to think that opening the image will run an .exe, that is definitely not the case.

Omfg this is cool.
I just got an idea for what I could do with this.

Awesome, I will you this.

can you hide a virus in there that will run?

So the program/file will only open if you open it with WINRAR? If so, this technique won't work for malicious uses. Still fairly helpful. Thanks.

I've already stated that this is impossible to use for malicious uses.
