Everyone wants to hide some of their folders or files which are private. And to lock your folder you need to install a software, and that occupies some space on your hard disk. Today I am going to give you a simple trick to lock your folders or file manually without using any software.
- Paste the code given below in notepad and ‘Save’ it as batch file (with extension ‘.bat‘).
- Any name will do.
- Then you see a batch file. Double click on this batch file to create a folder locker.
- New folder named ‘Locker‘ would be formed at the same location.
- Now bring all the files you want to hide in the ‘Locker’ folder. Double click on the batch file to lock
- the folder namely ‘Locker‘.
- If you want to unlock your files,double click the batch file again and you would be prompted for
- password.
- Enter the password and enjoy access to the folder.
Code
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
Enjoy !!!
