  1. Password protect your folders with lockbox


  2. when you are looking through folders in vista, do you see the thing in the top right corner for encrypting files? that's what its for.  I've never used it, but it is a built in utility to do what you are asking.

  3. better hide it which will be a good option


  4. If its just the the documents you want to protect individually, go into your document - go to 'Save As' then click on the 'Tools' on the menu bar. You will get a 'Security Options' in the drop-down menu. There you can put a password to open the file and also a password to edit it.  

  5. Probably not. But thereis utility to protect folder like:

  7. METHOD 1

    Ok,start>right click on My Documents click where it says show on desktop>go to your desktop and right click on my documents and click create shortcut>right click on the shortcut and click send to>then click on compressed(zipped)folder>then go to the zipped folder and click on file and it will say "Add password">make a password>delete the shortcut to my documents>go to start and right click on my documents>click on show on desktop

    METHOD 2

    go to your documents select all you documents and right click on them and click send to,click on compressed (zipped)folder,it will take some time depend on how much documents you have.But when all the documents are in the compressed folder click on file>add a password>make a password and there you have it!You have password protected all of your documents!:)
