sup guys? i was just wondering if theres any good tool out there to lock or hide files or make a password of a folder.... coz my dad and my younger bro is coming dangerously close to the forbidden files here in my PC specifically my h-movies...... google l33t was no help and most of them u have to pay, i just want freeware pls. just nice folder locker tools or the like tnx :thumbup:
I guess making passworded archive isn't an option? Some things like Word documents should have an option to set password on their own, but I don't know of any programs to do that.
so ill wait for countless hours of gigs and gigs of files to be placed in the archive? nope, sorry, i have about 6 gigs to hide
http://www.download.com Applications -> Security -> Folders and Files -> In the list, change it to "Free." I set a password to my whole computer, my My Documents, my My Computer, Task Manager, and Internet Explorer with one of the programs I got there.
I remember there was a program that could encrypt files and require them a password to access the files. I forgot what it was called so not much help to you there. What I suggest you do is burn all your "h-movies" onto a DVD and delete all the ones on your computer. Then you can just insert the disk and as long as you keep it hidden, you'll be good. Enjoy!
ummmmm..... sorry for my inferiority but i what do i dload at download.com? and whats the applications stuff??? hahaha, im a gaming major, sorry
ok. instead, follow this search link, or in the search box, type in "password files" http://www.download.com/3120-20_4-0.html?tg=dl-20&qt=password files&tag=srch
another easy course is to just enable the option to see file extensions, you know like the ".mp3" on the end of mp3 files or the ".zip" on the end of zip files etc... then change the file extension to ".bak" to call it a backup file, then turn the viewing file extensions option back off anybody who sees the files will just think they're some strange archive and will be unable to open any of them.... of course that might be a bit time consuming with that much stuff.... you could just get a hobby that doesn't involve lotion and delete the files
