Windows 10: How do I hide a user account folder in file explorer?

Hi, I'm wanting to make a tutorial series, but I will be needing to use my user's folder alot to access app datait's for Minecraft.But the problem is, my user account folder contains part of my email used to login when I set my laptop up.So what I did was create an offline account spacifically for these tutorials, one that contains a custom name, not associated with any email.Now how is it possible to hide the folderin file explorer for my main account without losing any data and losing access to any of the apps/appdata or files completely stored in there?

Hide or Show User Profile's Personal Folders in Navigation Pane

Hello Brink and thank you. This website is a very helpful resource.

Your suggested answer will hide the User Profile folder in the Navigation Pane.

Instead, this scenario involves not hiding the User Profile folder but hiding specific Personal Folders in the Navigation Pane that are marked "Hidden" in the Files/Folders Listing Area.

My suspicion is that there are more "PinToNamespace" registry entries for me to toggle the DWORD value.

 

Confusion between User accounts and Windows Explorer User folders

The Windows Explorer lists two user folders. However, User Accounts in control panels only shows one account-mine. Why not two? Also, the folder name in Explorer is different than the one in User Accounts*cry. Why?

I'm throughly confused. What are the user folders in Window Explorer? Are they supposed to be accounts? Why don't they appear in User Accounts?*cry

I can find lots of info about User Accounts on line, but nothing about the folders in Windows Explorer.
