Though there are many software’s available to lock your private data like “folder lock”. But if you want to lock your folders without any additional software I have a trick for you.

1. Open your notepad by typing “notepad” in run window.
2. then copy the following code in notepad as given below
3. cls
   @ECHO OFF
   title Folder Locker
   if EXIST “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” goto UNLOCK
   if NOT EXIST Locker goto MDLOCKER
   :CONFIRM
   echo Are you sure u want to Lock the folder(Y/N)
   set/p “cho=>”
   if %cho%==Y goto LOCK
   if %cho%==y goto LOCK
   if %cho%==n goto END
   if %cho%==N goto END
   echo Invalid choice.
   goto CONFIRM
   :LOCK
   ren Locker “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
   attrib +h +s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
   echo Folder locked
   goto End
   :UNLOCK
   echo Enter password to Unlock folder
   set/p “pass=>”
   if NOT %pass%==type your password here goto FAIL
   attrib -h -s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
   ren “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” Locker
   echo Folder Unlocked successfully
   goto End
   :FAIL
   echo Invalid password
   goto end
   :MDLOCKER
   md Locker
   echo Locker created successfully
   goto End
   :End
4. Then in place type your password here of above code type the password you want to set.
5. Now open file—-save as
6. Then select the location you want to create your locker folder
7. Then type name of file as   “locker.bat”
8. (note:-you should also use “” while typing name for file)
9. Now go to location where you saved your locker
10. Double click on it
11. Then you will see that a new folder named locker is created.
12. now move files you want to lock in locker folder
13. When you want to lock your folder just double click on locker.bat created by notepad
14. it will ask you to confirm to lock folder
15. press y and then hit enter
16. now see the effect

When you want to unlock the folder click on locker.bat. It will ask you for password. Type your password and hit enter and see the effect
