Folder password protected system detail

Although windows does let users place a considerable amount of restrictions to which user’s may access a certain folder or not, there is no way with windows alone to be able to protect a folder or folders or even a hard drive for that matter with a password.

You would in this case have to download a third party software such as Folder Guard which protects your files, folders, and other sensitive data with a password.

To password protect a hard drive is practically the same thing, you will also need to download a third party software to be able to password protect your hard drive.

Yes windows can also place restrictions on your hard drive to which users can access the information within, but to really secure your hard drive a password protection program is necessary.

Hello there!

Your best way forward is to right click the drive in My Computer then look under the Sharing and Security tabs at the various options at keeping people out.
