PenyuLocker

PenyuLocker is a very easy to use Windows utility created to lock any folder on the hard-disk with a password.

There are no configuration options and this is indeed good news for beginners because the whole process comes down to just a few clicks in the main window.

The application allows users to quickly browse any location on the hard drives and simply hit the “Lock” or “Unlock” buttons at the bottom of the main window.

A password is needed to successfully lock a folder, but also to access the protected content.

Administrator privileges are needed on Windows 7 workstations, but one of the most important setbacks is that PenyuLocker doesn’t come with shell integration.

Which basically means that users who want to password-protect a folder without launching the app first have no other option, so a dedicated Context Menu option could come in very handy.

You can’t get past the protection and nobody can access the content without the password, which is quite a good thing given the fact that you don’t even need to keep the app running.

It however runs on very low resources and doesn’t affect system performance in any way, getting along fairly well with all Windows versions on the market.

PenyuLocker makes for a decent app designed to lock a folder, offering the essential tools to help you in this regard. There are no configuration options, so more experienced users may look somewhere else for a bit more control over the locked items.
