on "my doncments" folders how do i password protect a folder?

You can't protect an actual file with a password, unless you have some kind of third party program added on. You can however make a folder private, so that you can only view the files when logged on to your user account.

Add the files that you want password protected to a zipped file,( NEW > compressed) then open up the zipped file and click FILE, and it should say something about a password there, if you add a pass it will affect all the files you put in this zipped file.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*note, im not EXACTLY where in FILE it has the password options because i recently downloaded winrar and its a bit different.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hope this helps <3

Using a compressed folder still allows you to view the contents of the folder, just not open the files individually.
