It will also completely hide your documents until a valid password is entered. You can protect sensitive system files from modification or destruction, disable access to the floppy, CD-ROM and other removable drives, and restrict access to Control Panel, Start Menu and applications.

You can secure files and folders on both the NTFS and FAT/FAT32 drives. You can hide only selected files and set up access rights using wildcards, or make files accessible only to selected programs.

The program protects your documents by intercepting requests from other programs to work with files; your data is not modified in any way. When this program hides a folder, its contents become invisible to all applications.

You can also configure the protection so that users are unable to download programs from the Internet or install them from CD-ROM without your permission.
