I made a cursory google search to check this, but apparently all that came up were programs... is there something that's already built-in in windows that allows me to limit access to my folders? I know about admin limitations, but I want to keep this folder safe even if someone were to get onto my account.
I've always wondered how to do that aswell. My bro did it on his comp but wouldnt tell me how. Lemme know if you find out how.
just password protect windows... bam problem fixed. also unless the files are encrypted there is no such thing as passowrd protection as you could just pop the harddrive into another computer and abuse it...
I guess you can rar files then put a password on the rar file, but if you're talking about files that you need for a program to run then forget it
Would you want to wait for the files to unzip every time you wanted to use them? Only downfall to that idea
If someone were to get into your account, that file would be vunerable and you wouldn't be able to defend against someone. Especially if they hacked first to get into your account. Pretty much you need to have different passwords for everything.
Actually it should take lesss You can directly play the files from an encrypted rar file, why take them out?
There Is Such a Thing known as Lock Folder XP (that is of course if your using XP) http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Lock+...G=Google+Search You Have to buy the Full version
I just want to protect my graphics files. The people in my family might delete something by accident.
you have to extract ti to directly play the files you realize... you typically just don't realize that because small things don't take too long
No i ment the file don't acutally have to be outside of the rar. You should be able to play it from the rar file and thefile will be put into the temp files folder
