My Lockbox is a free security software for password protecting your folders in Windows. This is extremely useful when you want to hide files and folders from other users in Windows. The protected folder (lockbox) is hidden from any user and application of your system, including Administrator and System itself. It is not possible to access the lockbox.
The program is extremely easy to use and you can set the lockbox location and the password during the setup procedure. Once the password is set lockbox will be hidden unless you enter the correct password. There is a control panel which allows you to change basic lockbox parameters like lockbox location, protection status, password.

I wish it allowed us to lock multiple folders
oh thats good i use lock my folders for this purpose and madhur that support mass password protection of either partition or many folders.
Unfortunately it doesn’t work, at least for me on Windows Vista 64bit. The program seems to work, but then if you reboot the “lockbox” is unlocked. Every single time.
I don’t know why windows isn’t built with a feature like this.
Same here on Windows 7 64bit —it works but opens on any reboot
