    "Good for little secrets"

    April 12, 2012  |   By LiliaMSU

    Version: WinMend Folder Hidden 1.4.5.5

    Pros

    Not good for big (CIA, FBI, Cydonia...) type of secrets...

    Cons

    Hides those embarrassing 1970-80's photos.

    Summary

    I really love this program, it hides the files in less than a second no matter how big they are. ''Seyfi84'' says there is a way to access the hidden folders with the right program, so if you have big secrets, you can use Androsa File Protector, it's simply the best and it's free. Or... lock your entire computer with Smart PC Locker Pro , here is their site:

    I just saw a program very similar to WinMend - it's called ''WISE FOLDER HIDER'' - I don't know if it's the new-improved version of WinMend. I read that it cannot be opened with other programs. Dear ''Seyfi84'' - if you want you can test Wise Folder Hider. (It's a free program)

    February 15, 2012  |   By seyfi84

    Version: WinMend Folder Hidden 1.4.5.5

    Pros

    Nothing worthy to type in here

    "Hidden folders still accessible"

    February 11, 2012  |   By tumasek

    Version: WinMend Folder Hidden 1.4.5.5

    Pros

    Hides the original folders and files.

    Cons

    Creates a new folder C:\Winmend~Folder~Hidden\...\cn\ where the so called 'hidden' folders and files are accessed FULLY if one uses the File Manager ZTree, rather than Windows Explorer. The info stated the hidden items are not accessible with another program but indeed they are with ZTree!

    Summary

    Without doubt this program does NOT secure your 'hidden' items from prying eyes, only in Windows Explorer. Use ZTree and see for yourselves!
