RE: Password-protecting files
instead of a password, you can hide the files. Right click the file/folder and go to properties, once you're there check "Hide" and once you press ok and it leaves that box, you will see the folder/file shaded outa bit. Then, at the top of windows explorer, you'll see a drop down menue that is labeled "tools" go to that, then "folder properties" go to view, and there will be a check box in that list about "donot show my hidden files/folders" anc check that.


theres also an encryption way, but im not totally sure how to get it tow work, and there might be difficulties.
