• How can I create a password protected folder? Also, how can I change the background in the files?

  Well my question about his car, sometimes you have things in your computer that you don't want others to read or watch.
  Once you put a password on a folder to prevent others to take a peek inside. No idea how to do it again?

  Once when I had windows Millennium Edition, I managed to change the background image in the folder its self. so when you opened it, you could have your own custom folder. But now I must keep that boring white folder is still no way to do it?

• Tried to password - protect folders (VERY important issues) and now cannot find/access them at all!

  That's what I had to do what I did:

  http://www.AddictiveTips.com/Windows-Tips/how-to-lock-and-password-protect-folder-in-Vista/

  Clearly, I clicked too much / the wrong thing, because these very important issues (for my work) are now completely inaccessible for me. This is not correct. I need them to work. Can someone help me please? (I feel like such a fool!)

  I tried restoring the system (twice) and nothing has changed. I have google and google to try to find a way to fix this, but so far have gotten nowhere! I'm a sort of panic... hoping someone can help me!

  So what (s) you refuse permissions on this folder? If deny you permissions to everyone, then of course your own username has been included in this group. Out of this is to start the computer with a Linux Live CD or USB key and the copy of the data in the files to external media such as a disk external hard USB or USB key. Linux will not honor Windows permissions. Then delete the files while in Linux. If all goes well, they are not system folders but are only folders you have created yourself. Then start in Windows, create new folders, copy your data to them. If you explain what and where are the files and what restrictions you want to give, we can help you to do this properly.

• password protect the bookmark or bookmark folder

  Can a bookmark or favorite folder password protected and if so, how.

  Thank you

  No and no. Firefox doesn't have such a feature and I am not aware of an extension that provides a feature like that.

  Better a user account logon Windows separate for each user of that PC and / or one for "guest" users Who will provide much more privacy.

• Files & folder sharing between XP, Vista, Seven with password protected

  How to share files or folder between XP, Vista & seven... must password protected
  My vista and my friend seven sharing very well, is password protected and I would like to add another XP at the center network and sharing as well, but I find the xp you have a problem, it can make sharing with vista & seven only without password protected and I would like to know how can I do with password protected sharing.
  Below are done on xp:
  1. install the update kb922120
  2.secpol.msc-> authentication security LAN network manager set to send LM & NTLMv2 - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated.
  Using Xp to Vista to access, seven a shared folder, no problem, while the password protected is located next
  Using XP to Vista, the folder shared seven, the access you have problem while the password is defined on
  It show no permission, but suppose that displays the prompt for credentials...

  Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

  In Windows 7, go to control panel > everything in Control Panel > network and sharing Center. Click on "change the advanced sharing settings. You don't want to use the residential group unless you have all Windows 7 machines. If you do and you want to use the homegroup, see Windows 7 Help & Support. Otherwise, in sharing advanced:

  Discovery of plug in the network
  Open the files and printers sharing
  Turn on the sharing section Public folder sharing
  Plug the password protected sharing

  A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, running on Windows 7 sharing files and printer as above will take care of this for you. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus/security with its own firewall component program, then you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Refer to the safety of any third party program or the user forums for how to correctly configure its firewall. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

  (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

  C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this:

  Start > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
  Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

  Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  D. Si one or more of the computers on your network are XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

  E. create share as you wish. In Windows 7 I usually share the Desktop of the user and the Public directory. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• How to backup to a folder password protected, located on another computer on the network?

  Hello

  My OS is Windows 7 Professional. I have configured windows backup back up some of my files on a network share on a daily basis. There are people other than me who have administrator privileges on the computer on the network where my backup is stored. My problem is to password protect the share network folder as windows backup on it my computer can be done automatically. The computer where the backup is stored is a machine to windows server 2008.

  Any ideas or suggestions?

  Run the task as a backup operator, add yourself as a member of the backup operators group.  You can do this with the console "Users and groups", to open the console type lusrmgr.msc in the box run from the start menu.

• BlackBerry Z10 password protect a folder?

  It is a way to password protect a folder in "Remember-> folders '?

  No, not that I know of.

• Some sort of password protect the folder "Startup"? Without administrator.

  I wonder if I can password protect or even lock the start-up folder for a specific user? I don't have administrator privileges, so I'm not able to use any kind of folder lock program. I need to make sure that the programs that I put in the folder loading whenever my PC starts, without them being able to be moved out of the folder. If anyone has any ideas, I would be very happy!

  Thank you

  Without being admin, I don't think you can do a lot. There is always the possibility to elevate yourself, which isn't too difficult, but giving instructions to bypass passwords and crack administrator accounts is against the rules of this forum. I'm sorry. Why not, contact your system administrator and set the autostart files? Or is that you won't know everything?
