Hi,

I want to lock one folder which has important doc by using command prompt. Here we can lock using some keyword with filename and unlock the same. I had done it long back and cant recall it.

Here is the link which tells something but not working for me

Let me have any ideas or new options to play with.

Hi moderator,

I think it will be better if the unanswered questions be closed by anyway or else the moderator may took some steps on the same.

Im looking forward someone to reply my post..

either you encrypt the folder...or you put the correct permissions for those that are authorized to view the folder. If you are the administrator, you can use cacls. type cacls /? on the command prompt to see how to use it.
