Folder password protect software.




Lets say you share computer between members of your family, but you still want to have some private files on it. Or you just dont want that accidental person (if your pc goes to repair) find some secret files on your PC. There is a lot of software that can encrypt/decrypt your secret files but it can take a lot of time if you have many such files. Our solution lets you have separate disk on your PC which may be locked and unlocked with a password within one second! Moreover, when locked the disk becomes completely invisible in the Windows system.

How it works?
Just install Secret Disk and choose a password. Then, start Secret Disk. Click unlock button, enter your password and you will see one more disk X: appears in My Computer area. You can now start working with your private files to save them to secret disk X. When you need protection just click icon in the tray area to lock secret disk and it will disappear within one second with all contents! When you want your files back, just open Secret Disk program, press Unlock button and enter your password. Its easy!

Power failure
In case of power failure or Windows failure secret disk will be locked on next system boot. It happens automatically because secret disk information are kept in memory and if memory fails secret disk will not be restored on next system logon. This adds maximum protection for your files located on the disk.

100% Compatible
Secret disk compatible with any files and folders. You can work with it as usual, like your My Documents folder.

Security level
Secret Disk does not encrypt any files. Secret Disk only limit access to secret location with your files and ties virtual disk to it when needed. This will provide you enough security to hide your files from accident person taking control over your PC, but doesn't guarantee top level security (because files stored on your disk 'as is', without encryption).
