Thank you HI,I guess Windows (NTFS) has a func to do that or you can crypt the data with : eg SafeGuard PrivateCrypto.So long,Mega Scripts & functions Organize Includes Let Scite organize the include files Yahtzee The game "Yahtzee" (Kniffel, DiceLion) LoginWrapper Secure scripts by adding a query (authentication) _RunOnlyOnThis UDF Make sure that a script can only be executed on ... (Windows / HD / ...) Internet-Café Server/Client Application Open CD, Start Browser, Lock remote client, etc. MultipleFuncsWithOneHotkey Start different funcs by hitting one hotkey different times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kandie Man Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 (edited) What you are requestion sounds like archive encryption. Pretty much all archives can have passwords added to them and they can hold files in a folder structure. I would recommend you use 7-zip. While archives are usually used for compression purposes, you can simply set the compression to store, so that it doesn't compress the files and folders in the archive, but simply allows you to store them in the archive and add a password to it.http://www.7-zip.org7-zip is free, open source, and uses 256bit AES encryption, currently one of the strongest single key encryption algorithms out there.

They have the D:\ drive like a recorvy disk, so when i try to open the drive a dialog pops op and say I can't open. More like that...(To open the disk I just can use the command sole ) Edited October 7, 2006 by Mr. Zero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zcoacoaz Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 (edited) I did it in autoit once, just write a script that will do something like this: Opt ( "WinTitleMatchMode", 3 ) While 1 Sleep ( 1 ) If WinExists ( "My Documents" ) Then $hwnd = WinGetHandle ( "My Documents" ) WinSetState ( "My Documents","", @SW_HIDE ) $pwd = InputBox ( "Folder locked.", "Please type the password to enter", "", "*" ) If $pwd = "abc123" Then WinSetState ( $hwnd, "", @SW_SHOW ) WinSetTitle ( $hwnd, "", "My Documents - Authorized" ) Else MsgBox ( 16, "Folder locked.", "Bad Password!!" ) WinClose ( $hwnd ) EndIf EndIf WEnd EDIT: You cant have single quotes in autoit boxes...

zcoacoaz Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 If you are using that script for something you really seriously need to protect I'd recommend some sort of system to make sure if someone closes the program it opens again.
