blade995 Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 i see your using firefox for this. You MUST use IE for windows update. To lock folders just have your dad/mom make you a user acount, then no1 but you and administrator accounts can view YOUR files/folders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vape Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 For locking folders: Control panel -> User accounts. Make the first user an administrator, this is called the root account and can access everything. Any further admin accounts created can view all accounts' files (including other admins) except the root account. Regular users can only view their own files. Then password protect your account so noone can log in as you and you're set :) Where the bloody hell are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faux Posted May 4, 2005 Author Share Posted May 4, 2005 So there's no way I can change folders into what it is in the picture, like add the little lock? That's an icon of an ecrypted log file from msnplus =/ :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercifull Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 1. you have to use IE on http://www.windowsupdate.com 2. you will need a third party encryption program. Or alternatively. My Documents/Work/Business/Files and make the "work" folder hidden. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.
