Directory Lock To Sync Premium : Lock up to ten different folders with an extra password, or security question so only you have access to private, important files
Your own accounts with which you log into Windows is secured with a password, and so are many more. However, this does not ensure maximum security, but you can always take extra measures. For instance, applications like Directory Lock To Sync Premium allow you to keep all data safe in specific folders.
Lightweight, and easy to use
Before you can fully enjoy what the application has to offer, you need to make sure that .NET Framework is installed on your computer, even though modern Windows iterations come with it as a default feature.Apart from a light set requirements, there’s no other thing to worry about, not even when it comes to accommodation. Features are all stored in a compact main window, with a clean skin giving it some personality, and options to change it with a few others you can access from the settings panel.
Secure up to ten different folders
The core function is to enable you to lock specific folders so only you can access them. This is possible with up to ten different folders, each with its own slot you pick from a dedicated drop-down menu.There aren’t any folders loaded by default, so you need to take the time to fill them in. Drag and drop is not supported, but it all takes just a few seconds. Hitting the lock button still leaves the folder accessible, but with content hidden, so it can’t be accessed, nor deleted.Unfortunately, the folder itself can be deleted through conventional means, even when it’s locked. For a little extra security, the application allows you to set a master password for when using the application, so folders can’t be unlocked by everyone. Additionally, a security question can be used for more safety.
In conclusion
All in all, Directory Lock To Sync Premium can come in handy for keeping folders on your home computer safe from others who can’t just mind their own business. However, you need to make sure target folders don’t get deleted, especially since they show up as an empty directory when locked.
