If you are looking for an application to secure your files and folders, then Folder Lock can offer you exactly that and much more. It is a robust data security solution available for Windows that provides extensive protection through locking files, encrypting them, and backing them up as well. Now you can easily protect your files, cards, and passwords with Folder Lock.

Locking folder made easy

Folder Lock’s primary use is to allow you to password-protect your files and folders. Don’t we all wish that we had a built-in option with Windows to password-protect everything? Now that is very easy to do with this application. 

If your computer is often in the hands of people who you don't want accessing your data, then you can add password-protection to your files and hide sensitive or private data from everyone. The best part is that it is pretty easy and does not involve any complexity.

1 GB of free storage, but then you buy more

Folder Lock provides you with 1 GB of free storage in your locker. It also provides you access to up to 2 devices, but if you want more storage or access to more devices, then you need to opt for the Pro version which comes with an unlimited locker size, up to 5 devices, and an unlimited number of shared users. It costs $39.95 per year.

Advanced encryption

The application uses 256-bit AES encryption to offer a high level of security when it comes to locking your folders and files. This ensures that your data is not only password-protected but also encrypted which makes it nearly impossible for anyone to access it. If you have any confidential files, then this is a must-have.

Store passwords, files, and cards

This application allows you to store your credit or debit cards within the app in an encrypted format so you can keep them secure and access them anytime you need. Furthermore, it also has options to store passwords for your various websites and platforms. If you trust Folder Lock, then these features come in very handy.

Cloud backup and extra features

It is not just a folder-locking application, it also provides you with cloud backup and real-time syncing with the server. This way, you can not only protect your data locally but also have a backup in case of any hardware issue. You can also access it remotely.

Delete files permanently

Folder Lock not only offers you file protection, it also has features to delete files permanently notably called file shredding and permanent deletion. This renders data on your hard drive impossible to recover ensuring no traces are left behind.

Worth installing?

Folder Lock is a great utility application for locking your files and folders. With options like a Stealth mode to ensure nobody can see if the app is running, and providing cloud backup for your sensitive data, this provides you a great solution for file locking.
