Lock My Folders - How You Can Protect Your Data

If you have recently purchased a computer, then you probably already know about Lock My Folders. It is one of the best password protection tools that are available on the internet. Not only does it allow you to secure your important data against identity theft and other forms of security breaches, but also protects your important passwords and other personal information stored in your computer. As with any other software program that you purchase for your computer, you usually have the option to either unlock your folders or hide them from view. Depending on what version of Windows you are running, you might be able to turn off the locking feature or tweak the settings so that they are able to be unlocked if you so desire.

Lock My Folders is an extremely effective tool that you can run on your computer to protect your confidential data. The software works just like a virtual control panel where all of the secured folders are listed. You can easily enable the folder lock feature or turn it off when you want to access the various files stored within. If you are wondering how all this is possible, then you will need to look no further than the software itself. Lock My Folders is a program that was created by a group of computer security experts that were hired by Microsoft to create a program that would protect your computers from identity theft.

Although there are many programs out there that claim to be able to completely lock down your hard drive... none of them are as effective as Lock My Folders. The reason why it works as well as it does is because it uses what is known as a hash function to determine which folders are important and which ones are not. By having the ability to determine this, the program not only prevents anyone from being able to open your folders but also from being able to manipulate the information stored within. By doing this, the only thing that you are actually protected from is someone trying to get into your folders and deleting information that you have decided are important.
