It is often necessary to password protect a folder on your computer so that someone outsider (or not very outsider) can not see or read what you think is very personal. Of course, the easiest and best way is to create your profile on your computer and protect everything at once. But how to make sure that the password is assigned to a specific folder?
Instructions
Step 1
The Internet will help us. In the sense that today there are a sufficient number of free software programs that will encrypt our data.
Step 2
Folder Password Protect is a shareware program that allows you to set a password at the user's discretion. This does not require accounts or use NTFS. The folder will be protected even when running in safe mode or another operating system.
Step 3
The File and folder protector program is quite simple. The program is shareware, it works for free for thirty days. Further, the program will require registration.
Step 4
Drivecrypt will allow you to encrypt not only individual files, but the entire hard drive. This creates a screwed-up container file. The program hides the container from strangers, also allows you to lock the computer and enter two levels of passwords: for the user and for the administrator.
Step 5
SecureAction CryptoExpert 2007 Professional 6.6.8 CryptoExpert 2007 also works on the principle of creating a container file, which is a virtual encrypted disk. In this case, encryption occurs unnoticed by the user. We also note the options for deleting files without the possibility of recovery and sending encrypted data by e-mail.
