How to password-protect a folder with Folder Guard
You can use Folder Guard software to protect folders with passwords.
To lock a folder with a password: run Folder Guard, highlight the folder that you want to protect, and press the Lock with Password button on the toolbar (or choose the Protect – Lock with Password command from the menu):
Choose a password and press OK. Note that a little yellow key sign has appeared next to the folder’s icon; this is the indication that this folder has an individual password assigned to it.
Now enable the protection as usual (by clicking on the Toggle Protection button on the toolbar or by using the Tools – Enable Protection command on the menu) and try to open the folder you have just protected through a Windows Explorer window. That is, click on the Windows Start button, then click on Computer (or My Computer) on the Start menu, and navigate to the folder you have locked. Finally, double-click on the protected folder in the right-hand window of Windows Explorer, and a password prompt should appear on the screen:
If you have entered a correct unlocking password, the folder should become unprotected and you should be able to work with the files and subfolders it contains without restrictions, as usual. However, if you don’t enter the correct unlocking password, the folder will remain protected.
(Note that in order to unlock the folder this way, you need to double-click on the folder in the right-hand panel of the Windows Explorer window. If you select the folder in the left-hand panel that shows the folder tree, the password prompt will not be shown and the Access denied message will be shown instead.)
Now, after you have unlocked the folder, try to close the Windows Explorer window, and you should see a prompt to lock the folder back:
Reply Yes, and the folder will be locked back with the password again, and will remain inaccessible until you enter the correct password again.
In addition to the basic password-protection described above, Folder Guard lets you customize the way it works to suit your specific requirements:
  • You can direct Folder Guard to add the Lock and Unlock commands to the Windows shortcut menu. You can use them to lock and unlock the password-protected folders by right-clicking on them, instead of (or in addition to) double-clicking on the folders as described above
  • You can use Folder Guard to password-protect not only folders, but also files and programs. All you need to do is add the file or program you want to protect to the Folder Guard window (using the Add file command on the Protect menu), and then assign the desired folder to the file, in the same way as shown above.
  • Instead of locking files and folders with passwords, your can completely hide them!
And more! Please feel free to download the fully functional evaluation version and give it a try. If you don’t like it, use Windows Control Panel to uninstall it: no strings attached.
