My LockBox - Hide Your Private Files From Everyone
Few days back I mentioned a tool called Folder Protection here’s another tool called My LockBox which helps password protect any folder on your computer.The best feature is that the protected folder (lockbox) is hidden from any user and application of your system, including Administrator and System itself. It is impossible to access the lockbox not only from the local computer, but also from the net and it also works under Windows Safe Mode.
You can set the lockbox location and the password during the setup procedure. After the setup is done, lockbox will be hidden and locked until you enter the valid password.
You can change settings like : lockbox location, protection status, password from the My Lockbox Control Panel or (Ctrl+Shift+P by default).
When you unlock My LockBox, It prompts you to input your password. If you close Control Panel, a small Folder Lock Box icon appears in the system tray notifying you that Lockbox is unlocked. You can click this tray icon to run My Lockbox Control Panel to lock the folder again.
Features
- Almost any folder on your computer can be password protected
- Instant protection - no file scrambling or moving to another place
- Lockbox folder is inaccessible even by the system administrators
- Lockbox folder is inaccessible both locally and remotely.
- Lockbox folder can be protected in Windows safe mode
