Answer 2

Unfortunately, there is no built-in option I am aware of, but there is a very simple program that you can use called Hide Folders:

This program is free.

You can set a password to open the application, so others can't see what you've hidden. Just drag what you want to hide into the program window, click the folder you just dragged in, and click "Hide" up on the toolbar.

The same goes for un-hiding a folder.
