• DO NOT USE

  user891November 7, 2010

  Pros

  Simple to use and does hide files and folders well.

  Cons

  Will crash your system repeatedly.

  Summary

  After 2 months of using this program I finally figured out what was causing my laptop to crash and give me a blue screen error message saying there is a problem with a file named fldsafe.sys. I tried every registry fix/disk check program I could. Finally after researching forums I found my way back here to see that other people were having the same issue. Uninstall this program, delete all related files, disk check, registry fix and now I have no problems. I almost gave up and trashed my laptop because this was happening anywhere from once every other day to sometimes 3 or 4 times a day and you didn't have to open the program for it to happen. You could be in the middle of an email or important project and then POOF! Gone.

• This app is known to cause blue screen of death !

  William_BerzoffOctober 5, 2010

  Pros

  It will successfully hide your files.

  Cons

  This app will corrupt Windows drivers that filter the file system ! The file system filter is essential for your Windows.

  Summary

  This app will corrupt Windows drivers that filter the file system ! The Windows own driver called FldSafe.sys will get corrupted and will cause your pc to crash with a blue screen of death ! You may loose all data produced since starting up your pc last time. This is a known issue on pc help forums. If you have allready installed this program I recommend you to consult a pc help forum on how to best fix your pc. I strongly advice anyone not to subject themself to this risk !
