Folder Guard works with drives of any format.

If your computer can handle it, Folder Guard can protect it. Unlike Windows itself that can only provide access control for the NTFS disks, Folder Guard can protect files and folders on any file system supported by your computer, including NTFS, exFAT, and FAT/FAT32.

Folder Guard runs on a wide range of Windows platforms.

From Windows 7 to Windows 10 and later, with all service packs and hotfixes, all are supported by Folder Guard.

Folder Guard sports one of the most intuitive user interfaces, that makes it easy to use for both novice users and computer professionals.

Folder Guard «speaks» plain English.

You don’t have to be a computer professional to understand how to use Folder Guard. Its Wizard can guide you through the steps necessary to set up the password protection of your personal folders. Folder Guard Advisor warns you about situations that may require your attention and offers possible workarounds. (For example, it warns you if you are about to protect something that should be left unprotected, such as the C:/Windows folder.) Folder Guard User’s Guide describes its commands and operation in plain English, without «pseudo-techno» or «geeky» talk. (And it does not baby-sit you either).

Folder Guard is not a toy.

Folder Guard is used by large corporations and small businesses, schools and police departments, universities and correctional facilities, libraries and hospitals (to name a few).

Folder Guard is widely used.

Hundreds of thousands of copies of Folder Guard have been downloaded by computer users from virtually all countries of the world.

Folder Guard is flexible.

Although Windows lets you restrict access to folders located on NTFS drives, it cannot hide them. With Folder Guard, you can not only restrict access to, but also hide folders, or make them look empty. Unlike Windows, Folder Guard lets you protect only some files within a folder, and keep the rest of the files visible and accessible, if you wish. Or, you can protect files and folders each with its own individual password, and then unlock them separately from each other (Windows cannot do that).

Folder Guard can be used with other disk tools.

You can designate your anti-virus and other disk maintenance tools to be «trusted» programs, to make them able to work with your protected disks without restrictions.

Folder Guard protection is extensible.

You can fine-tune the access rules to the files and folders of your computer by creating appropriate filters.

For example, you can allow only the read-only access to any executable file (*.exe, *.dll), to prevent them from being corrupted or infected by viruses, while allowing a full unrestricted access to other types of files, such as spreadsheets and documents (*.xls, *.doc).

Folder Guard will save you hours of learning time.

You don’t have to learn how to use the Group Policies, user groups, Access Control Lists, privileges, and other built-in security features of Windows, because Folder Guard does the hard work for you: its visual and intuitive user interface lets you manage the restrictions with ease.

Придумал комбинацию клавиш, включил невидимый режим, и теперь не могу открыть программу! Поначалу просто нажимал комбинацию и появлялось окно. Но вдруг комбинация перестала действовать! Что делать и как вернуть защищённые файлы?

Hammer про Folder Guard 8.2 [20-08-2010]

Да, господа. Вопросов куча, ответов ноль. Молодцы, продолжайте в том же духе. Пару норм комментов заметил, остальное — Имхо о себе. Программа служит только для домашнего использования. Любой хоть немного разбирающийся в ПО/компах человек сможет легко снять или обойти эту псевдозащиту. Чтобы произвести откат всего того, что эта прога наделала у Вас в компе, необходимо снять защиту в этой программе, после чего удалить программу из системы.
