    "Saved my company from going out of business"

    April 4, 2013  |   By lindsayclawson

    Version: Folder Lock 7.2

    Pros

    very dependable

    Cons

    gets the job done

    Summary

    My company was built from the ground-up; I began working from home as a journeyman when I first started out, eventually my business grew to a point that I had to hire more machine workers and today I have 100 employees working for me. A while back, after a ruckus with my shop manager, things got heated, and I felt that he may attempt to steal my list of customers somehow. Then, my neighbor told me about Folder Lock, and how it can prevent people from stealing list of customers, not thinking twice I purchased this computer program. I took one day to learn how to operate it, but some of my employees help me encrypt the list of clients that I have built over the years. A week back, my shop was broken into, and not surprisingly enough the hard-drive on my computer was stolen. I was sure that my customers would be contacted, I waited a month, to my shock, none of my customers had been contacted, and all the credit goes to folder lock program.

    "Great for hiding pictures of ex-girlfriends"

    April 4, 2013  |   By williams_clyde

    Version: Folder Lock 7.2

    Pros

    My wife can't figure out what I am up to

    Cons

    Works like a charm!

    Summary

    My wife hates that I have pictures of my ex-girlfriends still lying around, afraid she might soon discover them and tear them up, I scanned them and locked them with folder lock. As anticipated, she did manage to get a hold of my private images and destroyed them. Little does she know that I have scanned them and locked them with folder lock? I am not alone on this one; anyone who has the same problem should download this software.

    "Encrypted lockers are the most unique feature."

    March 26, 2013  |   By mitchellbardon

    Version: Folder Lock 7.2

    Pros

    Encrypted Locker create a virtual drive

    Cons

    may be complicated for the less-tech-savvy.

    Summary

    I had been on the lookout for data security software which lets me archive and encrypt my most important data. Consequently, I found out that Folder Lock does both things - startlingly - and without hesitation - I purchased the software. This software is - and this is my opinion -- the total data security solution for anyone. But don't take my word for it - download it - try it - and see for yourself!!!!

    "Great software for business related documents"

    March 26, 2013  |   By aronhardwicke

    Version: Folder Lock 7.2

    Pros

    Works perfectly with Windows 8

    Cons

    None found so far, let's see how it goes

    Summary

    I use folder lock to hide and lock my confidential documents, since I can't risk anyone else going through my personal documents. This software has enabled me to let my family members also use my PC without worrying about my kids deleting important data. I found all the features on folder lock practically useful for my needs. Good Software and a good investment indeed.

    "DON'T Upgrade to Folder Lock version 7.2.0"

    March 22, 2013  |   By al_gon

    Version: Folder Lock 7.2

    Pros

    The previous versions serve the purpose meant by this software but not the latest 7.2.0.

    Cons

    Folder Lock version 7.2.0 doesn't automatically lock the folders anymore once you exit Windows, unlike the previous version.

    Summary

    Don't upgrade to version 7.2.0! Once you supply the password, this version doesn't automatically lock the confidential folders again when you exit Windows. When you re-start Windows you will see that your folder(s) are already unlocked; so this software version is useless when the laptop is stolen.

    The previous version automatically locks the folders when you shut off Windows.

    When we bought licenses for this software for our use it was based on the previous versions security features. We emailed their customer support support@newsoftwares.net to give feedback on this latest version. But instead of escalating the issue to their software developers I was only given a sarcastic reply by the customer support manager. I guess they don't appreciate feedbacks from their existing customers.
