• How can I protect my folder on the external drive?

  I don't see a clear answer to this question online. I want to protect a folder on my external hard drive which has some personal data. I have to protect the whole disc, just a folder + subfolders. I see that the 3rd party software programs box password protect a folder, but when uninstall you them you may lose the ability to access again if you aren't careful, and they aren't full evidence for someone who is computer savvy and I really want to see this data.

  I watched a video on here EFS: EFS but it is a senseless video and provided no help to understand how it works. I created a folder to the test and does what it says. The name of the folder turned green so I know he did something, and it prompted me to create a key with password and save it, which I did. However, I can always freely open that folder and see the content, so anyone who has access to my computer is able to view that as easily as any other folder. Don't ask a key or password or anything like that. No sense for me...

  I need to a single folder (and subfolders) on my drive to be protected, encrypted, whether, for other people cannot access it even if they steal my external drive and connect it to another computer. I don't understand why it is so hard to find something that can do this and how to do it.

  If you enable encryption by file (or folder) with this option, which cannot be done because it is encrypted specifically with a hash of your account.  It also means that even if a system admin force - reset your password, the hash is invalidated and files that have been encrypted in this way will be unavailable.

  I need to I password protect a zipped folder.

  How can I do?

  Note that delete encrypting is only supported on the disk hard base NTFS and not FAT32, for example, if you copy the encrypted file in the Flash of the encryption will remove your zip file.

  You can create the zip file and if you use flashmemory you can use Bitlocker to go (this is the functionality of certain imprimablede Windows 7) or use third party software to encrypt it.

• How to password protect page (s) in Muse

  Hello world

  I need to password protect pages in Muse for an important customer.

  They say 10 portals to customers on their Web site.

  I spent 2 days on this now and not later.

  Before make us any other please DO NOT recommend those password widgets because they are unnecessary and not at all sure.

  Please see what I just wrote in my 123reg provider hosting (Apache Web server).
  

  
  

  I've set up a test page on my own website - password - test.html, downloaded from my site from Adobe Muse via FTP again and then the password file test.html in a folder called password.

  First, I tried the following:

  http://www.elated.com/articles/password-protecting-your-pages-with-htaccess/

  Note: I put the .htpasswd file (it's encrypted) in the root public_html not for 2 reasons:

  1) the author says he's more sure.

  2) I had no idea how to write the path if she was in the password file in the public_html.

  However, it is not good that my client needs multiple pages to be protected on their site, all different usernames and passwords.

  I used the following link and it worked it is to say I was invited for the user name and password and I could connect but instead of the test page I had set up I had my 500 custom error page.

  advanceconsult.co.uk/Password/password-test.html

  Realizing that put in the root would work for my needs, I then removed root .htpasswd and moved the folder password in the public_html and modified the .htaccess and then retested but that did not request username and password he comes to open 500 error page.

  Then, I deleted my .htaccess and .htpasswd in the password file and used your own password instead. It worked it is to say he asked me my username and password but I have not had the 500 error page only a load of headers etc. ie not the password test page.

  So, all I can think is that when the password test html page is moved to the folder that it loses its links with all the other files it calls to create the page.

  To be clear so I want to password protect say 10 different pages on the site with 10 names of distinct users and passwords (encrypted) and I need to be able to download the site of Muse to my host via FTP.

  I need an urgent resolution on this IE before Monday as I come to the client.

  Thank you all

  Mike

  Before go us any other please DO NOT recommend these password widgets because they are unnecessary and not at all safe.

  None are to some extent .htaccess and such things. I'm afraid you have a fundamental misunderstanding here. The simple answer is that what you want can be done with HTML simply and no access to the back-end server. What you have is simply a set of rules for the file and access to records, but without real authentication or encryption. Seriously, you need to consider using a dynamic interface.
