This is one of my old UB tutorials, I'll add some images later this day.
I will be explaining a very basic tutorial about how you can store data in any file without writing it directly into the file.

What will you need:
- a Windows computer
- Net tools (Click here to go to the downloadpage)
- a brain

Step 1: Download and install Net Tools 5.
Step 2: Pick your random file (mine is a .txt file to prove that it is not written directly to the file)
Step 3: Open up the program and go to "Start --> File Tools --> Hide Secret Data In Any File"
Step 4: Select the file you want to hide data in.
Step 5: Fill in the Data Name (the variable) and the Data Value (the text you want to hide).
Step 6: Press the "Store data" button.

To retrieve the data back from the file:
Step 1: Select the file you stored data in.
Step 2: Press the button "Retrieve data" and type in the variable's name in.
Step 3: The result will pop-up in a messagebox.

I've always liked this point in tutorials lol.

You know what, I'm liking this post - he who dares prevent me may forth his attempts.

I haven't tried this but isn't it just basic steganography? It will still write to the file just not visible to the casual viewer.

Yes. :3

It supposedly uses alternate NTFS streams to hide data, which means it doesn't make any changes to the target file.

Edit :

It's not as basic as direct stego, but still pretty easy to reverse.

1. Download Streams (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysi...97440.aspx)
2. Scan for alternate streams in a file / dump the stream name :

Code:

streams.exe file.txt

Dump format : :STREAM_NAME:$DATA X

3. Extract data from the stream :

Code:

more < file.txt:STREAM_NAME
