Re: Folder Password

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



the other problem is that if you put a password on a folder
and the user connects, the PC remembers that that user is okay
to see this folder, so during the day while that user is logged in,
staff can see the files.

Try this,
create a folder with permissions
create a BAT file that connects as a net work drive
e.g.
connect.bat
net use M: \\pcname\share
this will then prompt for a user / password

then create another batch file
e.g.
disconnect.bat
net use M: \\pcname\share /DELETE

this then logs off the user.

so they have to use the connect.bat to connect again
- as long as he REMEMBERS to disconnect again then this will be okay

I have a customer who wishes to put a password onto a folder on a Windows
2003 server containing his sensitive data. The problem is that this user
tends to leave his computer logged in on purpose - so other methods of
security by username will not work. Can folder password be done? If so
how
please.
