The issue of confidentiality of information has always been one of the most important. This is especially true for those PC users who often transmit information via the Internet, or, for example, if several people use one computer. Let's look at the possibility of protecting a file with a password using the WinRAR program as an example.
Instructions
Step 1
Pick a password. The password should be complex and simple at the same time. Difficult - for strangers, simple - for your memorization.
Step 2
WinRAR is a reliable archiver that provides not only the ability to archive files, but also a way to protect them with a password.
Step 3
First, right-click on the desired file and select the "Add to archive" menu item.
Step 4
In the window that appears, write the name of the archive, and specify the archive type - RAR.
Step 5
Then click on the "Advanced" tab and then on the "Set Password" button.
Step 6
Enter your password. The file is password protected.
