Folder Protect is a new concept in Data Security. It lets you password protect and set different access rights to your files, folders, drives, installed programs and popular extensions. Folder Protect goes beyond normal file locking and encryption by letting you customize your security and choose between making files inaccessible, hidden, delete-proof or write-protected.

The program uses Windows Kernel level protection that even works in Safe Mode ensuring complete security of protected folders. You can lock, hide, access block and even prevent data from being deleted or modified. This can help you give access of your data to others without worrying about it getting deleted or modified. Folder Protect can’t be uninstalled without a correct password. Furthermore, the program can work in complete stealth and you can choose an idle time when the data gets protected automatically.

Folder Protect offers an easy and uncomplicated way to select security type and make your files inaccessible, hidden, write-protected and delete-proof by choosing No Access, No Visible, No Write and No Delete respectively. You can also set a combination of these protection types according to their needs; e.g. No Delete and No Write can be selected simultaneously to make your files delete-proof and write-protected.

Data in Use Protection: Folder Protect is a pioneer in ‘Data in Use’ Protection. Unlike other file locking programs, Folder Protect can help you password protect your files, folders, drives and programs using access levels and flags such as ‘No Access’, ‘No Visible’, ‘No Delete’ and ‘No Write’.

Customized Security: Customize your data security with a mix of unique access levels for certain files and folders. You can choose to make files inaccessible; accessible but write-protected or/and delete proof; and/or hidden from other users. You can also simply right-click a file to protect/unprotect it.
