    Hey, first of all I just wanna say I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong section. So yeap, I just wanna know if theres anything like a program or something that I can use to like lock folders in my windows. Kinda like you know when you're unzipping a password protected rar file it asks for a password
    kinda like that but for normal folders, so like you need a password to get in that folder, anyone know if theres any like that?

    Use Folder Lock software.Search it on Google.

    You can try Truecrypt also. Its not a folder lock as such , its encryption. That way you can be assured that no one can take off your harddrive plug it into another system and read data from it.

    Yes it expires after the demo period is over. Why don't you use "TrueCrypt", it is free though a bit advanced level :)
