Amazon does not currently offer the option to completely hide orders directly within your account settings due to policy and transparency reasons. However, you can archive an order to remove it from your default order history view. To do this, go to 'Your Orders,' select the order you want to hide, and click on 'Archive Order.' This doesn't delete the order but makes it less visible in your history.
