All of us have some files and folders that we consider private. They can be anything from our business documents to
pictures of friends and family. These are files that we don't want other people using our computer to know about. As
Windows offers no way to protect our private information, most of us get in
awkward situations when these files are
discovered by unwanted people
Surely, you can store this information in a hidden folder. The only problem is that anyone
can easily search the contents of a hidden folder using Windows Search itself.
The only viable solution is storing this content in a password protected folder so that only
those people knowing the password of the folder can access it. There are many folder
locking programs available online but the problem is that most of the good ones are paid.
Even if you do manage to get a good free one, you will be looked at suspiciously when
people see a folder locker in the list of your installed programs.
If you too find yourself in a similar situation, you can try Folder Protector, a password
protector for Windows folders that is not only free but is also portable meaning that it does
not need to be installed. Just click on the exe file and the program will start running. I have created this program based on
suggestions and feature requests that I have received by email over the last two years.
Folder Protector offers each user a protected folder that can only be opened by entering the password in FolderProtector.
Unlike most security programs, Folder Protector is small in size (nearly 58KB) and does not show the folder that it is
protecting. This gives an additional advantage that people who don't know the password do not have a target to try and hack
their way into. As the software is portable, you can hide it or even delete it after protecting your folder and no one will have
a clue that it was used. Then whenever you need to access protected files, you can re-download the program from this page,
enter the password and access your protected files.
Download for Windows XP
Important: 1) This program uses a simple method to lock files and should not be used to protect truly sensitive
information. It is best to encrypt that kind of information.
2) Do not refresh your Windows PC when your folder is locked. Doing that will delete your files.
How to use Folder Protector?
When you run Folder Protector for the first time, the program will ask you for a password that you want to use. Enter a
password that you can remember as this will be the password to your protected folder.
