1In order to run a program you need to be able to see it. If you can't see it in any way at all then you cannot run it. This feels a bit like an XY problem. Are you trying to block other users from seeing or using the program or is there some reason you need to "hide" it? If you want to hide it from other (non administrator) users then you could simply install it to your personal user profile, when they log in then the will not be able to find it.– Mokubai ♦Commented May 17, 2021 at 12:42

Actually, the only user of the laptop is only me. I am trying to hide program called FocusMe from myself so I couldn't kill it while it is running. Maybe it would be plausible to make folder invisible but accessible by the system?– WannaAsk777Commented May 17, 2021 at 12:49

2As an Administrator you can easily and without any effort disable any suggestions we could provide.– RamhoundCommented May 17, 2021 at 12:55

Could you still provide any of them, even if they can me overcome? I'd like to hinder the path even a little bit– WannaAsk777Commented May 17, 2021 at 13:03

I have to agree with Ramhound here, this is a self-control issue and programs can help poke you in certain directions but are by no means a substitute as anything you can set up you can easily undo. You might want to set up a "low access" user with parental controls for when you need a little control, but again as you are the problem overcoming it is as simple as entering a password which is the same as pretty much any other way to do it. This is a you problem, not really a computer problem.– Mokubai ♦Commented May 17, 2021 at 13:10

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
