once you press the image of what ever on screen is copied to a clip board.now go to the microsoft tools and select clip organiser,edit and save it.

title Folder Locker
if EXIST "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" goto UNLOCK
if NOT EXIST Locker goto MDLOCKER
:CONFIRM
echo
echo ......................................................

set/p "cho=>"
if %cho%==Y goto LOCK
if %cho%==y goto LOCK
if %cho%==n goto END
if %cho%==N goto END
echo Invalid choice.
goto CONFIRM
:LOCK
ren Locker "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

___________________________________________________________________________________
2) set the desired password  by placing it in the position of "type password here in code"..(You will find “type your password here” in that code replace with the desired password )

3)save it as Locker.bat

4) now when  you double click the Locker.bat a folder called locker is created automatically there itself..
Place the desired files which you want to hide in that folder .


5)next run Locker.bat again this asks to lock the folder click yes (y)

 6)your folder then disappears gets inside the locker ...when ever u want to recover files just double click Locker.bat
it asks for a password ,enter that and access ur data ..
