FileSecrets is a lightweight, simple and effective tool that protects your files from any unauthorized access. Windows might have an ability to protect files, however, this can be easily altered by users in your computer that have right access privileges.
The aim of FileSecrets is to “secretly” protect your files – which means that other users will not even have idea on how your files are protected or even will not notice that your files are there. Get FileSecrets and take it for a spin to see what it can actually do for you!
Here are some key features of "FileSecrets":
Deny Access to File or Folder:
· This will restrict the specified file or folder from any access, from any user or application. For example, if a user tries to access your file from Windows Explorer, the user will receive the below error. Take note that this is not limited to Windows Explorer only as it also covers any other applications.
Password Protection:
· FileSecrets is password protected. When a user runs the application, he/she will be asked for the password you set.
Self Protection:
· FileSecrets protects itself by not allowing any unauthorized stop from running, uninstallation or deletion of its components.
System Resource Usage:
· FileSecrets is a lightweight tool that it only starts a standby Windows Driver component in the background that does all the protection. Therefore, it does not really impact any system performance.
