Some people will not understand the concept of privacy, no matter how much you try to explain it. When it comes to protecting your data, all that Windows has ever provided is the folder hiding feature. Fortunately, there are many third party tools available on the Internet. Estelar Lock A Folder can block access to any file, folder or drive, rendering them unusable, unless the correct password is provided.

All you need to download is a small setup file, which weighs in at less than one Mb. The installation process is fast and you will not have to do anything, except setting an output path and selecting what shortcuts to place. The operating systems you can run it on include all Windows versions, from Win NT to Win 7.

You will only find two options on the user interface when launching the software. One of them will lock a file or folder and the other one will unlock them. After choosing the lock option, you can load a file or folder just like in any other software, after which you will need to type and retype a password. Finally, click the large Lock button and you are done. The process may take a bit longer than expected, but your data will be 100% secure.

Protected data can be unlocked with the second option, in the program's main menu. This can be done the same way as with the locking feature. Load a file or folder, type your password and click a button. The icons of protected files or folders will be changed and accessing them will launch Estelar Lock A Folder, which will prompt for a password.

Pros

Estelar Lock A Folder is very straightforward. You only need to target your data by browsing for it, type a password, and access to it will be restricted.

Cons

The password must contain a minimum number of characters, otherwise the program will not let you proceed. Estelar Lock A Folder will keep your data secure from unauthorized users. It will only take a few seconds to lock your data with a password.
