How to Create a Password Folder?

So once again all the readers of this awesome blog, we are here to amaze you with another trick using codes that are very easy to understand, under my prospect I think so, and for your quick and real important need. We are her to show you how to create a folder which is password protected, how it is hidden and all about it in brief.

In here we will give a basic tutorial on how to secure your personal files by this very easy password protected folder without any additional 3^rd party software for installation, although it is not secure, it has many undetermined loopholes. It can be a hard trick for a common end PC user but advanced users can easily obtain its passwords and access to your important protected files.

Remember this is not a fullproof method to secure your contents with any kind of passwords, and can easily be accessed if wanted. So beforehand think once again before using it. For instance you can use software’s to make invisible folders or password protected folders to secure your contents or encrypt a pendrive or hardrive to make it unaccessable.

Now just follow me for making a password protected folder:- 

#1. The main aim is to create a text document, you can create it wherever you like. There are two processes to make a notepad program which you can refer from here. Firstly open Notepad and copy & paste what you see below between the two apostrophes:-

“ cls

@ECHO OFF

title Folder Private

if EXIST "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" goto UNLOCK

if NOT EXIST Private goto MDLOCKER

:CONFIRM

echo Are you sure you want to lock the folder(Y/N)

set/p "cho=>"

if %cho%==Y goto LOCK

if %cho%==y goto LOCK

if %cho%==n goto END

if %cho%==N goto END

echo Invalid choice.

goto CONFIRM

:LOCK

ren Private "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

attrib +h +s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

echo Folder locked

goto End

:UNLOCK

echo Enter password to unlock folder

set/p "pass=>"

if NOT %pass%== PASSWORD_GOES_HERE goto FAIL

attrib -h -s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

ren "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" Private

echo Folder Unlocked successfully

goto End

:FAIL

echo Invalid password

goto end

:MDLOCKER

md Private

echo Private created successfully

goto End

:End ”     {Avoid the apostrophes}

#2. After pasting, Click on File --> Save As.

#3. Change the ‘Save As Type’ to 'All files' from ‘Text Documents (*.txt)’ and then in the ‘File Name’ option type the required name of the Folder. For example: Anything.bat. Notice you must save the file in the format of .bat, by following the steps aforesaid.

#4. Open the .bat folder from wherever you have saved. Do step by step whatever it asks or read our next section on it. It should be looking like this:-

NOTE:- Remember to change the extension name to .bat, otherwise it will not be workable. Be sure of it..!!

How to access the private folder:-

#1. Open the .bat file or your password protected folder from where you have saved it, double-click on the locker.bat file and there will now be a new folder named Private appearing, it will be named Private until and unless you have changed the name in the code above, where you can put anything you want.

#2. After your desired work when you want to close or hide the folder again, open the .bat file you had created by double-clicking on it. Now this time it will ask you for whether you want to hide the folder again or not. It will give you two option Y or N, it is not case sensitive as long as the code is not changed and until unless the characters are not changed. It will prompt you to answer Y or y or N or n to lock or leave it, by pressing Y -  to lock it and N – to leave it open. By pressing Y the folder will disappear.

Y – To lock the folder with password again.

N – To leave it as it is, open shown to everyone.

#3. In order to get back your file click on the .bat file, this time it will ask you for the password which you have assigned for the Folder.

How to modify it, just follow the below steps:-

{i} To change the name of the Appearing Folder-

Change the name ‘Private’ each time when you see it, to rename the password protected folder which appears after entering the password.

{ii} To change the Option ‘Y/N’ into other variables-

‘Y/N’ or ‘Y’ or ‘y’ or ‘N’ or ‘n’ – change the following letters with the letters you want to assign in your code very attentively.

{iii} To change the password of the Folder-

PASSWORD_GOES_HERE – change this text into the required password that you want. Suppose for example you want to a password of 00000 in place of PASSWORD_GOES_HERE, just put it in its place.

if NOT %pass%== 00000 goto FAIL

{iv} To change the location of the hidden file-

Control Panel. {21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} - You can change this text into the following preset codes to work with:-

• My Computer. {20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
• Recycle Bin. {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
• Printers. {2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}
• Internet Explorer. {871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}
• Network Neighborhood. {208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}
• Subscriptions. {F5175861-2688-11d0-9C5E-00AA00A45957}
• ActiveX Cache Folder. {88C6C381-2E85-11D0-94DE-444553540000}

It usually changes the location of the hidden file in the computer, by default it is Control Panel, if you go check the code above.

For example,

I have changed the folders name to ‘Amp’, option to close the folder to ‘O/P’ and the location of the file to ‘My Computer’.Notice the code how I have changed it.

How would I retrieve the folder/data if I forget the new password?

If anyone forgets the password of the assigned password protected folder, just right-click on the .bat folder and select the option given, ‘Edit’. The code which you had entered in the program will show you the password.

Search it somewhere here in the code:-

Just go with pattern in the folder...!!
