How to Lock Folder without Software Using Batch File

Copy and paste the code given below in notepad and 'Save' it as batch file (with extension '.bat'). Any name will do.

Then you see a batch file.

Double click on this batch file to create a folder locker.
New folder named 'Locker' would be formed at the same location.

Now bring all the files you want to hide in the 'Locker' folder. Double click on the batch file to lock the folder namely 'Locker'.

If you want to unlock your files, double click the batch file again and you would be prompted for password. Enter the password and access the folder.
