( Or Click here to get the code in .doc format) Update: The code given in earlier link is incorrect,  please use this new link in .doc format<img src="http://www.lytebyte.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/lock-without-sw.PNG" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />2) Change the password by replacing ‘type your password here‘  in the code with your password. 3) Save it as XYZ.bat (Note: Try to be innovative and save it in such a  way that it sounds like a system file so that nobody will try to bother  clicking it) <img src="http://www.lytebyte.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/code-file-for-folder-lock.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Update: If you are not sure how to change the file  extension from .txt to .bat, check How  to Change File Extension in Windows. 4) Close the file if it is still opened and double click XYZ.bat5) It will create a new folder called ‘Locker’ automatically. (If you  want the file name to be different, find and replace Locker in the code  with the name of your choice). This new locker folder will be created in  the same hierarchy as the .bat file. <img src="http://www.lytebyte.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/new-locker-folder-created.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />6) Place the contents inside and double click XYZ.bat, it will ask  whether you want to lock. Say ‘Y’ and now your folder will disappear. <img src="http://www.lytebyte.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/place-any-files-inside-the-locker-folder.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.lytebyte.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/lock-the-folder.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />7) To view again, double click XYZ.bat again and enter your password. <img src="http://www.lytebyte.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/enter-password-to-unlock.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Frequently asked questions: 1. What if I no longer want to hide the folder? Just delete the XYZ.bat file when the locker folder is in visible  mode. Or you can rename the Locker folder to something else and the next  time if you double click, it will create an empty Locker folder. 2. What if I deleted the .bat file when the Locker folder is  not hidden? You can download the code again, change the password and create the  XYZ.bat file. Now paste that file in the same hierarchy as the Locker  folder. It will work as before with the new password. 3. What if I deleted the .bat file when the Locker folder is  hidden? The contents are still there hidden, so don’t panic! Just download  the code again, change the password and create the XYZ.bat file. Now  paste that file in the same hierarchy as the Locker folder is hidden.  Double click the .bat file and you can unlock the Locker folder with the  new password. Note: This trick is only to provide Privacy, so that  nobody accidentally opens your private folders. It does not provide any  ultimate security. Anybody can  open XYZ.bat in any text editor and view the code. As I had mentioned it  before try to keep this file in not an obvious place with a name that  looks like a system file, so that nobody will have a chance to touch or  doubt at this file.Reference (){<a href="http://www.lytebyte.com/2007/06/25/how-to-lock-and-hide-folders-in-windows-without-additional-software/" target="_blank">http://www.lytebyte.com/2007/06/25/how-to-lock-and-hide-folders-in-windows-without-additional-software/</a> ;2010/04/05 ;}</blockquote>
