Folder Lock FAQs

Q. What is Folder Lock used for?

Folder Lock uses virtual drive encryption to encrypt files and users need not to assign a particular size for storage. Users can encrypt files with AES 256-bit military grade encryption and RSA 128-bit for the user profile. It offers a file locking feature that uses a kernel-level driver to hide and lock files, folders, and drives. Folder Lock also enables users to backup their encrypted files to popular cloud storage services like Dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive, allowing for seamless synchronization across multiple devices.
