Lock any Folder without Software (Folder locker):-

Lock any Folder without Software (Folder locker):-

The following batch script help you in locking up your folder with a
password, so the user who knows the right password can only be able to
access the folder, where others don't (Well this is not quite secure,
but can be useful in learning batch programming, because even a noob
can easily identify the password, or can access the folder without
using a password, there are a lot of ways to break it).

The batch file that is given below will create a directory named
'Locker', when it gets executed, then you may place whatever you wish
to place inside that directory, once done re-execute the same batch
file, then it will prompt you whether to lock the folder


press 'y' and hit enter, then the directory 'Locker' Disappears. In
order to make the directory re-appear again, you have to execute the
same batch file once again, then it will prompt you to enter the
password to unlock the folder, you have to enter the password as
'secret', since it is already mentioned by default in the program
itself.

Once the password is matched, then the folder becomes visible, so that
you can access the folder again.

So, what happens is that, the folder 'Locker' is set with the system
and hidden attribute, hence it becomes invisible, when the batch
program is executed again, it prompt for password, which is already
set as an
environment variable with a value 'secret', when the match is found,
the attribute is set to normal and the folder becomes visible and
accessible.

Here is the snippet for the folder locker




@echo off
