Lock folder without Software Secret Method

How to Lock folder without any software with password

A secure folder is a feature used to safeguard sensitive data saved on a computer or other electronic device. It offers an additional degree of security by restricting access to the targeted region through encryption or password protection. This guarantees that only authorized individuals may access and read the data stored in the safe folder. The goal of a secure folder is to prevent unauthorized access to private material, such as personal files, financial papers, and sensitive information. With a secure folder, users can be certain that their information is safeguarded from theft, loss, and exposure.

⭕️Step 4: Save Batch File

Now save the file as whatever name you'd like, but make sure the name ends in ".bat" and that you select "All files" in the drop-down box when saving. Also, if you opened Notepad directly rather than using the right-click, be sure to adjust your save location accordingly.

You'll notice that your folder has now disappeared.

⭕️ Step 7: Access Your Hidden & Locked Folder

Now whenever you need access to your folder, just double-click on the batch file, input your password, and hit Enter.

To re-lock (and hide) the folder, just hit the batch file again. And remember, you can name the batch file and folder whatever you like, you feel free to make sure of this trick in multiple locations on your Windows machine.

Done

How to Lock folder without any software with password

You can use the command prompt to create a password-protected folder without using any additional software. 

Here is a simple tutorial you can follow:

Step 01. Open the command prompt by searching for "cmd" in the start menu.

Step 02. Navigate to the location where you want to create the folder. You can use the cd command to change directories.

• Type the following command and press Enter: md secretfolder

• Type the following command to create a new text file in the folder: echo password > secretfolder\password.txt

• Type the following command to create a batch file: echo @echo off> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append a command to the batch file: echo cls>> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo @echo Enter password to access folder>> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo @set/p "pass=>">> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo @if NOT "%pass%"=="password" goto FAIL>> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo @echo Correct password>> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo @goto END>> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo :FAIL>> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo @echo Incorrect password>> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo @goto END>> secretfolder\lock.bat

• Type the following command to append another command to the batch file: echo :END>> secretfolder\lock.bat

To lock the folder, double-click on the lock.bat file. To unlock the folder, enter the correct password.

Keep in mind that this method is not secure and is intended for simple protection against casual snooping. It would be easy for someone with even a basic understanding of computers to bypass this password protection. If you need to secure sensitive information, it is recommended to use a more robust solution such as encryption.
