There are a lot of methods that can be used for Locking Folder. Most require the use of some third party software, but we have a neat method for hiding folders with some commands.
Open Command Prompt (Run as Administrator)
or
Open the Location Where the Folder Exists
Note:
1) Copy the path given in Address bar.
2) User “cd” followed by “Folder name”
Ex: – cd “D:new Folder” will open the folder for named “new folder” which is in “D Drive”
3) Enter “Drive path”
Ex: – D:will open the “D drive” with the path you entered above.
Note: “User name” is the Name of the account for which to Lock the Folder.
Ex: – cacls “Folder” /pGuests:N will lock the folder for the Guests Account and cacls “New Folder” /pAdministators:N will lock the folder for the Administrators Account.
