Is there anyone to help me out?How does a folder lock software actually locks a folder, how does it made a folder totally inaccessible?It provides use level locking only as far as I know - there are several ways to bypass folder locking- In my opinion if there is content that you have to lock with a Password - I would zip the file with Winzip and set a password there. Either that or if the folder is far too huge to zip then you can always take a double precaution by making it hidden.
