So /g/, is there a program that can make you to enter a password or some shit like that before opening a folder? I don't want my family opening my porn/really important files when I'm away and they're using my pc. Really appreciate any help.
>>
>>58006957
just keep them on a thumb drive
shouldnt have any files you care about on the same physical drive as your OS anyway
>>
>>58006965
Neat idea, but that's real hassle if you just want it to be there and I don't want to take the risk of losing it or breaking it.
>>
>>58006957
the real question here is why are you letting people use your pc
>>
Truecrypt (and all of its alternatives) let you do that
>>
>>58006957
Make am encrypted file container. I use Veracrypt. Make a full container if the size of your choosing. Make a password that only you would know and no chance of being guessed.

You can name the file container anything you want. The file cannot be opened unless you're using the program used to make the container. Name it something ambiguous. I.e. config, settings. Etc.
>>
>>58006957
Encryption. Simply locking the file doesn't always work well, since there are ways around it. Using encryption will use math and shit to generate numbers which are used to scramble the data in a way which would only be unique to said numbers made by your password. Also name the folder something like "official microsoft firmware" or something, or name it like "minecraft" and change the icon, that way people won't fuck with it or delete it. Or just burry the folder deep in some thing in Program Files x86.
>>
>>58006957
This is why you should be using Linux. Encrypt your home folder with a good password and never worry about it. Make a general account for your family to use that way they won't mess your shit up.
>>
encryption makes it mathematically impossible to view your files, Truecrypt is a dead project these days though so use an alternative.
>>
>>58006957
use a separate user. Will prevent simple attempts to access.
>>

>"official microsoft firmware "

You guys arent understanding what OP needs, a program to password protect individual folders

I think what you're looking for is a program that does something like MyLockbox. It's pleb tier password protection but would probably keep normies out of certain folders.

The other question is 1) why are you downloading porn 2) get your own pc D) you have to be 18 to post here.
>>
>>58007275
We know that. But we're all suggesting encryption because mere password-based access restriction at the folder and file level is piss easy to get around, however encrypting the folders and files isn't and still allows OP a convenient way of hiding his files

>>58007328
or he could just use an external drive like a normal human being, or simply make it a hidden folder, rather than faffing around with overkill methods like encryption

Op here, so I took one of your advice and sent my folder to one of the data folders of my games. I encrypted that, and sent a shortcut to my desktop. I replaced the icon with some important looking shit and renamed it, and make it fuck off to the corner where no one would expect it. And if they did they would have to get pass an encryption code to get in so there.

Kind of an overkill if you think about it.
>>
>>58007573
Oh, and I also marked it as a hidden folder.

FolderGuard if don't need real security.

VeraCrypt if you want to be secure as Windows will let you be.

dmcrypt+luks if you want actual security.

Create a guest account. Merely burying the files deep into another fold isn't enough as individual files will show up when you type something in the search menu.

While it is accurate, it's a really stupid way of phrasing it.
