Did a search but didn't find anything. My daughter, son-in-law and my three grandchildren (all under four!)live in Pompano Beach, FL and will not have power until sometime after Nov. 15th, so they're coming up here to Tampa to stay with me. Being a normal, adult male I have lots of files on my computer (HP) that I do NOT want them to have access to. I would think that my daughter would want to access her e-mail account however. How do I password-protect EVERYTHING on my pc but still allow her to have her e-mail access? Is this even possible? Any help would be appreciated. BTW, they will be here Sunday. Thanks, Barry P. S. Please pray for my sanity!!!! LOL
Put all your Pron in a new folder. Right click on the folder and select Properties. Check the tab for "hidden" (which is under read-only). Voila! Good luck! Note: Make sure that hidden files arent shown.
DVD, I tried your instructions on an existing folder but when I looked at my Documents and Folders, there it was! I must be missing something here. Anyways, if I do get it hidden, how do I find it again? Barry
open my docs click on tools then folder options click onto view tab just at the bottom before you have to scroll down it will say do not show hidden files make sure this is selected (little green dot) and thats it or alternatively winrar your folder so that it is compressed then uninstall winrar. file will be seen as unreadable (give it a nice name as to not give it away. then when kiddies have gone home reinstall winrar unzip RavenLife
Raven, all I can say is WOOOOHOOOOO!!!!!! Thank you so much. It's just amazing how simple things are when you know what you're doing. This is like going back to college but SO MUCH MORE fun!! lol Thanks again, Barry Please continue praying for my sanity, though!! Six people in a two-bedroom house. Help!!!!!! <bg>
