how to password protect yellow folder?

mr_accountant

Computer is windows 98se, home computer

How do i password protect a folder (i.e. the yellow one) with some personal documents inside it, without the need to go into the folder and protect each file individually.

Ive clicked on the properties tab and only comes up with the options of archive, hidden, read only, enable thumbnail view

many thanks:beer:

I'm using Win98SE here. It's fast and simple, they got it about right in the end.

I agree, up to a point, if there was more more modern interface, it would be good.
My 2nd PC is 98se with 500mhzAMD 384mb RAM.

Loads faster than my neighbours 2.0+ pentium with all the AOL/McAffee carp he insists is a requirement for a connection.

Or rar file using winrar.

Alternatively use Cryptainer LE

If you had been using XP, I would have recommended my preferred one, True Crypt
