Folder Lock Essential Description

Folder Lock Essential is a tiny and portable piece of software designed to restrict user access to files and folders by password-protecting them. It features intuitive options that shouldn't be difficult to figure out, even by those less experience with security software.Quick installation and password protectionThe setup procedure is quick and does not require special attention. At the app's first run it is necessary to define the key that will be required at every startup, along with an email address (in case the password is lost or forgotten). User-friendly GUI with intuitive optionsThe interface is clean and intuitive, based on a single window with a clear-cut structure. Files and folders can be pointed out for password-protection with the help of the file browser or tree view. Unlocking selected items is done with the click of a button. As far as app settings are concerned, it is possible to change the password, UI style and language, disable automatic update checkups, and more. There are no advanced options provided by this piece of software. Evaluation and conclusion We have not come across any issues in our tests, since Folder Lock Essential did not hang, crash or pop up error dialogs. It has minimal impact on system performance, since it uses low CPU and RAM. All in all, Folder Lock Essential gets the job done and can be used by anyone, but it does not feature any advanced tools.
