How to Password Protect Folders
Hi I would like to password protect a few folders on Windows 7, how can I do this?
Ideally when someone would click on the folder there would be a prompt asking for a password, similar to what happens when you make a .zip and password protect it.
The only software I found till now which comes closest to my needs is Protected Folder, however you have to open the program each time and unlock the folder you want to use, then re lock it when ready, it's not so straightforward as I was imagining. Also I don't know if access will be blocked from other users on the network, once the folder is shared.
Would love to know if you guys know of some other software that better meets my needs. Thanks.
