Folder-locker
This is a tiny software to lock a folder, without compression and encryption. it's super convenient and fast。
Usage Demonstration
On the folder you want to lock, right-click to call out the lock panel, and enter the password twice to confirm the lock.
On the locked folder, right-click, enter the password to cancel the lock.
Project Introduction
The project is divided into two directories:
- DButility
- Used to save passwords through the lightweight database SQLite.
- The password is encrypted by Md5 algorithm, and SQL injection is prevented by SQL parameters.
- folderLocker
- Used to implement business logic.
Note before using it:
- The password is saved in the local database and is not uploaded to any server.
- Removing the software also deletes the database and therefore the password is gone.
How to use
- Download the software package Folder Locker.exe
- For installation, it is recommended to install it on the D drive.
- You can use it by right-clicking, or by clicking the icon and open the software interface.
Trouble shooting
If you forget your password:
If the password is lost and the file is locked, it can be renamed via the command line tool.
For example, if your folder is E:\folder, open the cmd command window and execute the following command
ren e:\folder.{2559a1f2-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} new_folder
Where {2559a1f2-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} remains unchanged, and "new_folder" is replaced with the file name you want.
Note: In version 1.3.0, an universal password (Albert-W, i.e. my github id) can unlock all folders.
