File and folder protector that could protect itself from viruses as well?

Asked By John S Michaud 50 points N/A Posted on - 03/15/2013

Hello techyv.com!

I know of some sort that file and folder protectors are used to protect your files from any intruders or people who can't stop from exploring hand's off stuffs. But I was thinking if there is an Antivirus that is designed to enhance the capability of File and folder protector? That it could also protect your PC from viruses?

Dear John,

There are many ways to protect your files and folders. Window also provides many facilities to save your data from data thieves.

I will tell you two things to protect your files and folders.

1. First method is to turn the Firewall on. In fact firewall is a technique that is used to prevent the computer from outsider connections. Like remote connection etc.

If you feel the risk only from data thieves, then I will recommend you to use only firewall settings.

1. 2nd method is to password protection.

Right click on your folder and choose “send to” and then zip folder.

After that open the zip folder, right click anywhere and choose “Add a password” it will protect your files. Now whenever you need your files, you have to give the password to view the files.

I hope it will help you.
