aaron901 Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 is there any way u can password-protect a folder in mac osx? whenver its double-clicked, password is needed to unlock it. (you know, sometimes you want to hide some folders :happy: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuarterSwede Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Actually, I was wondering how to do that in windows? I am assuming extra software is involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaron901 Posted December 8, 2002 Author Share Posted December 8, 2002 I posted an extensive answer to this question a couple of weeks ago. Do a search homy.jesse ;-) i've already tried that method. but thats only for folders with few megabytes.. 'coz it takes forever to mount an image with few gigabytes of data. is there a third party software that can do the job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
