Anvi Folder Locker

Most people rely on their computers to store valuable files, ranging from cherished photos from their vacations and parties to work-related official documents.

If you also have such data on your PC and you want to make sure that nobody else can access them, you can turn to Anvi Folder Locker and protect your directories.

The application installs within seconds and you will not encounter any issues, so you just need to wait patiently until Anvi Folder Locker is up and running.

It needs to be emphasized that even novices will not have a hard time setting up this app, since it does not come with any complicated configuration requirements. You only need to select a so-called master password that needs to be entered by all those who want to access the program.

The main window is meant to be as user-friendly as possible, so you can easily browse your computer for the folders you are interested in and add them to the list.

Once loaded, you simply need to choose the action you want to perform, such as lock, password-protect, hide, make read-only or hide and lock. On the downside, there is no way of selecting a specific encryption algorithm, so you need to settle with the default settings.

Unprotecting any of these folders can be done just as easily, with only a mouse click.

Whenever you want to add a new folder, you can either browse to its location, as previously mentioned, or you can drag and drop it onto the main window of the app.

When Anvi Folder Locker is not running, a dedicated entry is created within the context menu of folders, so you can lock them with a single click.

The application is a nifty solution for all those who want to make sure that the private documents they store in certain folders are truly safe and cannot be accessed by unauthorized users.
