USB/FOLDER LOCKER

If you have a computer in your household and you share it with other people, you probably understand how annoying it can be for others to accidentally bump into your documents, some of which you might prefer keeping secret.

Although there's a lot of stuff you can do to prevent them from accessing your stuff, the most obvious solution is often the best one. In this case, you might want to turn to specialized software such as USB/FOLDER LOCKER.

You can easily figure out this app's purpose, since its name is pretty straightforward about it. There you have it, an application that can help you lock folders and even USB devices from the comfort of your own computer. It can also unlock them just as easily.

However, the locking/unlocking process can be a bit confusing, especially for new users who have no previous experience with such programs or medium-to-advanced PC operating skills. That is why we recommend that you read the "Readme" file before attempting to lock stuff on your PC.

USB/FOLDER LOCKER encompasses a Command Line Interface (CLI) instead of a Graphical User Interface (GUI, you know, the one with buttons and stuff), which is the main reason new users can get a bit confused.

In order to successfully lock contents on your computer with this app, you must modify a bunch of parameters hidden among the program's internal files. The most important ones are the password and the location of the documents you want to lock, or the USB drive's letter, if that's the case. The app logs each attempt to unlock your contents and saves it in a text document that you can easily access afterwards.

USB/FOLDER LOCKER proved to be efficient in locking folders on your PC and even USB storage units behind a password, but the fact that you have to look around for parameters to modify in its internal files can be confusing, especially for novices.
