<h1>Lock A Folder Without Any Software</h1>

1.) Create a new folder and create a new text document in the folder you created.

2.) Copy the below code in the text document. Replace your own password with YourPassword in the below code.

     cls
     @ECHO OFF
     title Folder Private
     if EXIST "HTG Locker" goto UNLOCK
     if NOT EXIST Private goto MDLOCKER
     :CONFIRM
     echo Are you sure you want to lock the folder(Y/N)
     set/p "cho=>"
     if %cho%==Y goto LOCK
     if %cho%==y goto LOCK
     if %cho%==n goto END
     if %cho%==N goto END
     echo Invalid choice.
     goto CONFIRM
     :LOCK
     ren Private "HTG Locker"
     attrib +h +s "HTG Locker"
     echo Folder locked
     goto End
     :UNLOCK
     echo Enter password to unlock folder
     set/p "pass=>"
     if NOT %pass%== YourPassword goto FAIL
     attrib -h -s "HTG Locker"
     ren "HTG Locker" Private
     echo Folder Unlocked successfully
     goto End
     :FAIL
     echo Invalid password
     goto end
     :MDLOCKER
     md Private
     echo Private created successfully
     goto End
     :End

3.) Save the document as filename.bat and select the Save As Type to All Files.

4.) Open the filename.bat and it automatically creates a folder named 'Private'. You can save the data you want to hide in that folder.

5.) Now to lock you Private folder, open the filename.bat, press 'y' (without quotes) & hit enter. Then the folder goes hidden.

6.) To open your locked content, open filename.bat and enter your password.

Enjoy !!!!!
