just to add on, other pple can see a preview of your code by left clicking once on the bat file. to disable preview, use alt + P. Would be nice if OP knows a way to stop preview only for that bat file.
First I got hacked and searched and I found many videos but they did not work and I finally found your video and I can't thank you enough. THANK YOU ! ! ! !
Just one point. This code works for a single folder. If the folder you want to protect has other folders inside it, this wont work consistently. You would have to move the files out of the sub-folders so that they occupy just a single folder.
you don't have to write your password down somewhere, cuz if you by chance forgot what it was. don't worried , right click on the .bat file and check it out yourself
You're absolutely awesome! I appreciate and value your detailed explanation of how to protect your folder! Thank you so much for helping me protect my folders!
HUGE SECURITY PROBLEM: After setting up your password protected locker, anyone can break into it. Here is how: if you open the 'Notepad' app, then in the upper left corner click 'File', then click 'Open', then click the drop-down on the right of the file name bar, and click 'All Files', then select the 'FolderLock' bat file, the Notepad app will open the code of your password protected lockerfolder, and from there anyone can easily see the password on line 23 where it says 'if NOT %pass%== _______ goto FAIL'! This does not add significant security for sensitive information.
This is what I've been looking for so far.. I can't understand other RUclipsrs that made the tutorial but yours is so UNDERSTANDABLE yes!!.. I finally found someone that teaches clear informations..THANKS a lot you really saved my day.. Have a good day👍👍

So always when I do it it works and from the moment there are other folders in there with pictures (homework of course) it can't close again. So I'm not much with a locked folder that can only close when there's nothing in there
literally all it's doing is marking the folder as a Hidden Systems folder. You can undo this in seconds without knowing the password. Additionally, the password is stored in plain text, so it can be read by anyone who opens the bat file in notepad. NOT safe at all.
oh, HA! that's funny! I knew it wasn't 100% secure (and I'm quite thankful since I'm VERY forgetful) but it took actual seconds to find my password after I forgot it. thankful for that at least TwT
OMG THANK YOU I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO LOCK MY FOLDERS! I have searched a lot on RUclips for computer tech videos now I found the right place I subscribed and thank you again!!❤❤
I don't know how to thank you brother for the great job you have done for me. I can now finally go out there while I am very sure that nobody will interfere my sensitive information in my PC

Hello, it doesn't work in my computer. It always creates another folder named, which is "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" like this. I can't hide any folder. Plss help me. Looking forward to, Bawi Mang
Same here. Not only that, I click on the new folder and see my files, however, I can't open them. I get a message stating that the file has been moved.???
This should work: (I'm assuming you're also constantly seeing files that should be hidden all over the place such as desktop.ini for example) Go to your File Explorer Options window. You can find this by simply typing file explorer options in search. Go to the view tab and make sure "Hide protected operating system files" is selected. Sorry if I'm late in this reply.
All you have to do is click on the Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} then click the back button on the top left corner under "File" then it will lock
@@gaurifirststeps8454 do u need help? i mean do u both really need help?ok i will tell the solv is to copy ur items which u added in locker file then delette locker then make another one then done!

@@yd8584 So this is pretty cool for normal PC users but this isn't gonna protect you against hackers all you have to do to bypass this is literally rename the bat file to .txt whilst it's locked and then you can open it as a text file and see all the code (including your password) so all people have to do is then save that password and rename the file as .bat and then paste the password they just stole from you really easily lmao
Excellent video...I should not have tried it when I was exhausted. Can I reverse all the steps and start all over? How would I do that...I don't want to lose my information. Thanks.
if a folder popped up called locker appears place your stuff in there it dissapears once you lock the AND DO NOT PUT THE .BAT FILE FOR THE LOCK SCRIPT IN THE LOCKER IT WILL MESS UP!!
This isn't working for me help. I have done everything right but when I left click the FolderLock it opens up the text and asks if I want to lock the folder instead of creating 1.
i locked a folder and after a while i reinstall windows but i opened the locker and copy all files and data and paste it all again in the D after install all data not opening and i cann't find the locker to but the password
What if we write a wrong password, like what would happen?, will it get closed completely?, or will it give u a couple of chances, and if it wrong to, will it give us a time limit to enter your password again?
This is a good tutorial but all it needs its right click at the bat file while locked and "edit". From there you have the script and the code can be found. Its ok for protecting files from people who dont know coding but if they do they will open it. Long story short, if you have important files that you dont want anyone to get access to just throw them to a usb
Does this sort of protection also allow the system to store downloads into the locked folder automatically, or do new files added to the locked folder need to be added manually?
Thank you so much, man. I have a shared computer and I have alot of stuff I use for game development and my brother always disturbs my stuff on the computer and alter files and all and I can finally protect all my game development files 🙌
Thank you so much. My folder is now safe. Will it be safe without getting deleted unknowingly? Can the locked folder be copied or moved to any other location in the same drive or some other drive?
Yeah I moved it into my local C, installed games where I have over 60 different games, made a shortcut, both the folder, the hidden folder & bat file , that way unless they open folder first with password they would only delete a shortcut, I then changed the properties of shortcut folder by renaming of folder after folder name is blue, hold alt, & press 255 (must have a number pad to right of keyboard), now folder will have no name. now select no name folder, properties, customize, change icon, look for a picture that is empty select it. Now your folder is invisible, no name & mildly password protected & can't be deleted : )
This process works like a charm. But, if I'm missing something, I think you can view the password by right clicking on the batch file, then click "Edit" to retrieve the password. Not sure how secure this is.
This is cool, code seems to be valid but this has a major issue, if someone knows the exact name of the file in locker folder he can search for it in windows finder and he can open everything he can search for. I am offering you better way. Most of us have WinRAR. You can right-click the folder you want to be saved from others click on add to archive... now new window show you klick on add password. In this tab you can choose tic bar to encrypt files names.
I really appreciate this video, but is there a way to make it so that the file is non editable? Because if someone really does mess around with the private files for long enough they can probably figure out the passcode because when you click edit on the locked folder it shows the script you used to make the folder as well as the password.
... great ... thx from good old Germany ... I didn't think, I could realize it ... apple //e ProDos 1.1. and MS DOS 3.2 seemed so far away (1984 - 1989) ... but the little batch-tool works really good ... best wishes for you guys ...
People can still open the folder. The batch file gives each computer that accesses it the option to lock it or not. I guess this wasn't created for shared drives but only for kiddos to keep their 'homework' hidden on the family computer
for me, instead of disappearing "Locker'' folder, its name just change to "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}". And all contents can be seen in it. What should I do? Pls...
i have locked my folders and photos like the video explanation years ago, but now i have a problem , after several updates , when i open the folder and fill the pasword the folder that opens it is empty, i click again and says if you are sure to lock the folder. the files have disappeared. Please help how can i turn back all the locked files and photos.
What If you moved the hard drive to another computer and can no longer access the bat file? I want to open it on another computer the other computer died that I originally made it on
Thank youu it really helped. But i have a question is there anything i can do if i forgot the password? (Because i wrote it down and someone threw some of my stuff ) so im unable to remember it now🤦🏻♀️
This is such a good tutorial on how to create a password locked folder but how do I make the lock permanent or set by itself without setting it through the FolderLock whenever I've opened and closed the folder?
Hi, my file showing "operation did not complete succesfully because the file contains a virus or potentially unwanted software". so what I have to do now.?
Well, You can just change the file back to "txt" file and then you see the password right infront of your eyes? And then change it back to bat and write the password and you got all access Edit: But if you go into that bat files properties and changing for System, PCName all that.. To "Change" Disabled/NO access. Then you cant even yourself get into the "edit" section of the file?
I think when it asks you do you want to lock this folder just put a capital N(I think)??? Do not try this cause this is a guess. Ask an experienced person before trying this :)
if you want the folder the folder to be hidden(if its ur main purpose) just go to properties of the folder and tick the hidden option... it will hide automatically ......for recovering go to the file explorer>view(on the above task bar)>options>view>advanced settings(show hidden folders).....thats it!

Is it possible to ever remove the lock if i decide that i want it unlocked later on?
I think when it asks you do you want to lock this folder just put a capital N(I think)???
Do not try this cause this is a guess.
Ask an experienced person before trying this :)
Hell yes!! I have been needing this for years!! Thank you very much!!!!!!!
Glad I could help!
if you want the folder the folder to be hidden(if its ur main purpose) just go to properties of the folder and tick the hidden option... it will hide automatically ......for recovering go to the file explorer>view(on the above task bar)>options>view>advanced settings(show hidden folders).....thats it!
i can now have tons of games on my school computer and my teacher won't find out
Nice, is there any way the folder lock itself after some time or when we close or get out of the folder. Thank you.
