From NewSoftwares:
Folder Lock is a full suite solution letting you keep your personal files encrypted and locked, while keeping an automatic and real-time backup of encrypted files to an online storage. It also offers portable security for USB drives and CDs/DVDs. Folder Lock also lets you lock files, folders and drives; save your personal information in Wallets; shred files and clean your Windows History. Folder Lock offers 256-bit AES on-the-fly encryption as well as syncing of encrypted files to an online storage. No need to decrypt or manually backup your files. You can later restore files at any time, on any computer. Lockers can also be converted to executables using the 'Protect USB/CD' feature that allows you to keep your encrypted files wherever you go in USB drives or CDs and DVD or convert your files and folders to encrypted ZIP files for email attachments.
Furthermore, if you want to protect your files without encrypting them, you can also lock your files, folders and drives on your PC from access and visibility. You can also create Encrypted Wallets to save personal information like Credit Cards, Bank Accounts and Business Cards. You can also Shred files, folders, drives and empty hard drive space. You can also clean Windows usage history. Additionally, Folder Lock comes with additional security settings unheard before. You can activate password security and restrict access to different parts of the application using an admin level master password. You can run the application in complete stealth using the Stealth Mode feature. You can also catch and perform actions on repetitive hack attempts and on basis of incorrect password logs and you can set automatic duration based protection for your data security, so you know that your stuff is no longer accessible to anyone else when you're away from your PC. Folder Lock works under all flavors of 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 7/Vista/XP and later.
What's new in this version: Version 7.2 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

"Saved my company from going out of business"
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.

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."
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!!!!

"DON'T Upgrade to Folder Lock version 7.2.0"
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.
