How to hide a .rar in a jpeg file

rar in a pic

Here’s some good old instructions that I found to hide a .rar file in a jpeg so that you can open it as either…

  1. Get your .rar file and put it in the same directory as a jpeg picture (c:\hidden is a good place to put it)
  2. Open up a command prompt by clicking Start/Run and typing “cmd” and click ok.
  3. In the DOS window, type “cd c:\hidden” to navigate to the folder
  4. Type “copy /b input.jpg + input.rar ouput.jpg
    (where input jpeg is the picture you want to show, input.rar is the file you want to hide and output.jpg will be the name of the new combined file)

That’s it! You can double click the new file and it will show it as a picture, BUT… if you open it with winrar, you will see the files contained. The picture above has a secret file in it, right click and save picture to your computer and then open it with Winrar to see what I put in there!

  10. The two methods basically have the same principle. With the jpg files, you wouldn’t do anything more but view them if the file was not intended for you. With mooncakes, you definitely wouldn’t be opening them up if you were not the intended recipient of it so only the recipient would eat it and find the message.

  11. What about tag pages? I’m finding that alot of my traffic is coming from tag pages. I didn’t see any settings for true/false with regard to tag pages. Thx.

  12. Go in the command prompt and type

     ATTRIB +S +H name_of_a_folder 

    . The folder will DISAPPEAR, and you won’t be able to find it even if you change the settings to “show hidden files and folders”. There is an option that enables you to see them, but nobody uses it .

    on linux you can do this by typing:
    cat archive.rar >> img.jpg
    where archive.rar is your rar file and img.jpg is your jpg
