Folder Guard Classic Edition 7.5
Folder Guard Classic Edition - Snoop-proof your files with Folder Guard. Folder Guard is a Windows security program which you can
use to restrict access to files, folders, and other computer resources. If you share your computer
with your business colleagues, family, or roommates, you can use Folder Guard to stop other users
from opening your personal files, or even 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, restrict access to Control Panel, Start Menu,
applications, and more. Windows XP (and Windows 2000/NT) allows you to use its built-in security to
control access to data stored on the NTFS volumes. With Folder Guard you can secure files and
folders on both the NTFS and FAT/FAT32 drives, with a much greater flexibility: you can hide some
files and keep other files in the same folder visible, set up the access rights using wildcards, or
make files accessible to only some programs that you select. If your version of Windows does not
support file security (such as Windows 98 and Me), you can use Folder Guard to keep your important
files and documents protected from unauthorized use. Folder Guard protects your documents by
intercepting requests from other programs to work with files; your data is not modified in any way.
When Folder Guard hides a folder, the folder-s contents becomes invisible to all applications
including Windows programs like Explorer, applications like Office, and even MS-DOS programs. You
can require password access to the protected folders to keep away unauthorized visitors. On a
user-by-user basis, you can allow or deny access to the files and folders of your choice, as well
as to the removable drives, Start Menu and Control Panel. You can configure the protection so that
users would not be able to download programs from the Internet or install them from the CD-ROM
without your permission.
