Some of us are really worried about out data being read or copies by others. The fear is more so if you are keeping your personnel information on your Office computer. Now many of the offices have policies and other kind of Restrictions which prohibits installation of any software without the Permission, and when you go to boss for permission to install ‘Fine crypt’ or Other such software the boss says ‘Oho, so what do you have to hide here, huh?’ Tricky situation. Fortunately there is solution in windows itself.
Step 1. I assume you are working under your own user’s name.
Step 2. In command prompt type Cipher “X:\File name/E/A”
In this X is the driver letter (C,D,E Drive) File name is the name of the folder/file.
This will prevent all users- other than you to access this file/folder.
Step 3. To decrypt type Cipher “X:\File name/D/A”
The third party freeware is fine crypt which you can download from
www.finecrypt.net
it allow to choose from up to 10 different algorithms.
