eg: if NOT %pass%== narnia1234 goto FAIL //so ur password here becomes narnia1234 .// 4- After that go to ‘save as’ & name this file as "locker.bat " 5- Now back to the folder & u will find a ( LOCKER ) commanding. (locker.exe) 6- Double Click on it & u will find a new folder (Private ) 7- Ok ,, now copy what u want in this "private Folder" & after that come out of the folder, and Double click on locker again. It will open and ask if you want to lock your folder? Y/N ? 8- Type Y. your private folder will dissapear. 9- If you want to UNLOCK your folder ,go to (locker) & type your pass and you will see your private folder. it not only hides the fodler, but incase, u unhide all files... and try opening it without entering password, it'l take u to the control panel... Also, if u want to store files on your Pen-Drive, u can use this script. No Software Required Incase u delete your Locker file (just in case), then u can make a new one (but with the same password) and open it from that. Alternatively, u can keep this locker file somewhere else, and when u want to open ur folder, only then bring it back to that place...
