Password protect files and folders by a time schedule.

Easy File Protector is a user-friendly application that creates a secure environment for your files and folders based on a user-defined time schedule. It's an essential program if you share your computer with other people.

Once you've completed a brief installation procedure, you'll be greeted by a standard layout window representing Easy File Protector's interface. However, it's essential to note that the program is designed to run only on x86 architectures. So, even if you're running Windows 10, you'll need to ensure that it's x86 and not x64.

Encrypt files easily with drag-and-drop from Explorer

Adding files and folders to the workspace is a breeze, and you can do it via file browser, treeview, or "drag and drop" functionality. You can also specify a start and stop time, along with the day of the week and password, to restrict access to specific items for each computer user. Additionally, you can add Internet access files and executables, remove an item from the list, or deactivate the protection status permanently. Unfortunately, there are no other options available through this tool.

To sum it up

In conclusion, this straightforward software app includes user documentation, has a good response time, and requires a low-to-moderate quantity of CPU and system memory. We have not encountered any error dialogs or crashes in our tests.

Though the app has not been updated in a while, Easy File Protector's features are relatively easy to figure out, even for less skilled users. So, if you're looking for an intuitive application to secure your files and folders, Easy File Protector is worth checking out.
