Reactie op Password Folder Pro 2.3.1
Please add a comment explaining the reason behind your vote.
I think the biggest drawback of this software is that once you password protect a folder you cannot copy it to another drive without decrypting it.
If you're password protecting a folder, obviously that means the folder contains important files. So, after password protecting a folder, it will remain only on my hard drive. What happens if my hard drive fails? I will lose this important data because I am unable to take a backup!
You may argue that I could decrypt the folder and then take a backup. But that would be a nuisance if the contents of the folder keep changing, because then I would need to periodically decrypt the folder to take a backup and then encrypt the folder again and also encrypt it on the backup disk too!
I like the idea of encrypting a folder, but I feel the program would be better if one could copy the encrypted folder to the backup drive or a cloud drive.

Sunil, Re " once you password protect a folder you cannot copy it to another drive without decrypting it."
When I tested the giveaway, I found the folder was encrypted into a file with the name of the original folder and the extension .pff. I could save that encrypted file to my DropBox. So, I can backup it easily.
Of course, you will have to remember the password and have the giveaway handy. But you can always install the freeware version of it. And you can use a standard password.
When I compare it to the freeware 7z - that I use almost daily - I miss the option to test the compressed file. It happens that I make I typo in the password!

The biggest drawback is that it only helps against your mother.
It is so unsafe that "protection" can easily be removed with a single line (on the commandline).
My advise: Use for public data only!

Question for the developer: If I apply a strong password is this enough to protect from ransomware? Thanks.
