Have you ever wondered if it is possible to Lock Folder using Notepad
Well yes it is possible to Lock Folder Without Any Software. This method works fine in Xp/Vista and hopefully upper versions of windows

Here we start:

Open Notepad from your Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Notepad


Step 1. Copy and Paste the below code in Notepad and Save it as FolderLock.bat

Code:

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

Now save this notepad file as FolderLock.bat


Step 2 :- Now Double Click that new Batch file named FolderLock and it will make a new folder named Locker in the same location:
Now put the Data Inside the folder Locker and again Double Click the Batch file to Lock it, this will give you a prompt, just Type y and press Enter: , File get locked
Now keep the Batch File named FolderLock.bat in a different place like your USB Pen Drive so that only you can access the Folder you have locked.

To Unlock the Folder just double click the Batch file again and type y and press Enter.

NOTE:- This Folder Lock Will Sometime not work on saving FolderLock.bat file on dekstop
