How to enable folder password counter?

Asked By joan d vogt 10 points N/A Posted on - 09/19/2012

I have restricted access to some of my folders and files in my computer. The only way to restrict is of course, to use the folder password protection. However, I need to allow some users to access the files and folders which are sitting on my Windows XP machine. I know how to enable the password but I would like to know if I can actually enable a folder password counter? This could be a great feature so I know when and how many times the folder has been accessed.
