Windows has no access to the content of the locked folders. You can use it to set passwords as an alternative.

It was one of the contest entries for the PSP Genesis Competition 2011 (Apps).

How to bolt subfolders safely

Subdirectory - Example with up to 7 upper or lower case:

  • EXAMPLE (unlock) to .EXA (lock) = securely bolted = EXA (after unlock)
  • example (unlock) to .exa (lock) = securely bolted = exa (after unlock)
  • Example (unlock) to .Example (lock) = only invisibly = Example (after unlock)

Recommended names for proof subfolder(s) are A00-Z99. It does not concern the GAME folder.

Subdirectories can be locked but not secure bolted, only shown as Currupted Data (to reduce risk of mistakenly locking crucial datas).
