How to password protect documents?
Hi Chrishenry,
There is an easy way to protect and put a password to your document. You will need to use Winzip to compress and set a password to your files and documents.
1. Choose the file you want to put a password.
2. Right click on it and choose "Add to archive".
3. After the archive appears, select "Advanced" tab and choose "Set password." option.
4. Enter your desired password to protect your file and click "Ok".
Your documents are now protected by a password. I suggest to backup first your data (to your flash drive or other storage devices) before doing this.
If ever you forgot your password, you can still open it.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Mike

How to password protect documents?
Hi,Â
Â
Everyone wants to lock some documents/files/folders to prevent other users from accessing. So we can lock these by using some software e.g. Folder locker. And you can use a password to lock the documents when you use Windows Notepad. If any other users want to access your confidential documents, a password is needed. Try this.
Â
a. Open Notepad and copy below codes In your notepad.
Â
@ECHO OFF
Title Windows Ghost Locker Folder Locker
If no EXIST LockerÂ
GOTO MDLOCKERÂ :CONFIRM
if do EXIST ""Control Panel.{ 21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}""Â
goto UNLOCK
echo Do you want to the folder lock? (N/Y)
set/p ""choice=>""
if %choice%==n goto END
if %choice%==N goto END
if %choice%==y goto LOCK
if %choice%==Y goto LOCK
echo Unlock Folder Enter Password
echo Choice InvalidÂ
:UNLOCK
set/p ""pass=>""
if NOT %pass%==YOUR PASSWORD HERE goto FAIL
attrib -h -s ""Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}""
ren ""Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"" Locker
echo Successfully Unlocked FolderÂ
goto End
goto CONFIRM
:LOCK
ren Locker ""Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}""
attrib +h +s ""Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}""
echo Locked FolderÂ
goto end
:FAIL
echo Password InvalidÂ
goto end
:MDLOCKER
md Locker
echo Successfully Created Locker
goto End:End
Â
Here change your own password.
Â
1. Save as cmd or anyname.bat in your drive anywhere.
2. Click double to open. This command prompt will disappear and appear. A new folder name of WCG-Locker will be created.
3. Move any files to that folder that have to be locked. Then a command prompt will appear and ask you ‘Lock N/Y’. Do you want to the folder lock?(N/Y). Then the folder will be locked.
4. If you want to unlock the file, click double The Batch File. You will be asked to enter the password. Then unlocked the folder.Â
5. Please be aware that other users can edit the Batch File to change password."

HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU.
