How to lock a folder without using a software
This is something which i got as a mail. Just sharing
Open Notepad and copy the below code and save as locker.bat. Don’t forget to change your password in the code it’s shown the place where to type your password. Now double click on locker .bat
First time start it will create folder with Locker automatically for u. After creation of the Locker folder, place the contents u want to lock inside the Locker Folder and run locker.bat again

Problem with code is that you have to replace all original quotes (“”) in notepad (edit-replace) with this one “,then it works perfectly, but in my opinion this is not so good solution for protection because you can simply click edit on .bat file and you will see used pwd,hope I helped

Sory, quotes are differently displayed on this page,just use normal quotes in notepad(second button to the right of L +shift
) instead of original…

HA HA
1)If Somebody sees the suspicious Folder
“Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
2)and Decides renames it to “My_As$”(or watever)
3)then anybody can ACCESS THE INSIDE FILES.
This method is gay.

yes i could do….
thanks a lot..
its a nice trick.. but you cannot unlock folder in front of frnds.. because password can see anyone.. only this is the drawback.. otherwise this is nice trick
