[@coolseterh7685]

thanks it works! but when i made another folder did everything console just close automatically and i dont even do anything how do i fix this?

[@wendellbrown6693]

Will it work on a shared network folder on a LAN where other workstations can access the password protected folder from their workstation?

[@amirehrlich4969]

It works fine, thank you. BUT, when I click on the locked.bat file I can see its content in the preview window so anyone can see the password... How do I prevent this ?

[@gluetheknot]

you are the best

[@broonxgaming]

How to undo this batch

[@sumon1488]

tnx bro

[@TechRelatedTips]

Welcome bro

[@anshbansal3013]

It just hides the folder and does not make it password-protected actually.
You just search the file name on the search bar below and ta-da!!! , anyone can access it.
😅

[@jameswaite4271]

Right but how is anyone gonna know the name of the folder

[@mazaaymughal1633]

Thanks Brother it was really helpful

[@TechRelatedTips]

Welcome. Glad it helped!!!

[@ajayoraon237]

I'm forgotten my pswd how am I open the folder

[@darlogs]

Don't worry its just hide the folder. Go into the same folder and search for the file name which you locked. when it comes open any folder from the folders you locked. and then go back you will find yourself in the same locked private folder.

[@yashmore7523]

Bro it's doesn't work i create the lock.bat but when i double click then doesn't form a private folder 😭 how can i fix ?

[@S-eq9gq]

Try run as administrator

[@shivaprasath9339]

Bro for me also... How to solve

[@nitishkornu2979]

Bro i forgot my password is there any solution to unlock it ?🥺

[@jerrysharma3719]

If you have the text file in your recycle bin then look for the password there

[@darlogs]

Don't worry its just hide the folder. Go into the same folder and search for the file name which you locked. when it comes open any folder from the folders you locked. and then go back you will find yourself in the same locked private folder.

[@RahulNaskar-np4ws]

if anyone open the lock folder with any code editor they can get the code and unlock it. Its not the safe either lol

[@arkasaha21]

here it is shown access denied

[@TechRelatedTips]

are you the admin?

[@hyper_1v_clutcher325]

Nahi hua

[@vardapetyan]

Kid's level protection. Anyone can open the batch file in a text editor and clearly see the password.

[@StudyAllTimeSAT]

U can easily avoid this by changing the settings in security tab of batch file. Choose authentication to disallowed full control and remove that whole option. Next time no one can open or delete that file.

[@dmdreddy5499]

@@StudyAllTimeSATwhat about recovery when folder is locked and we forget our password?
