Open Notepad and copy the below code and save as locker.bat or any other name.bat

cls
@ECHO OFF
title Free Folder Locker – www.filehouse.tk
if EXIST “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” goto UNLOCK
if NOT EXIST Personal goto MDLOCKER
:CONFIRM
echo Are you sure u want to lock the folder(Y/N)
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 Personal “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
attrib +h +s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
echo Folder locked
goto End
:UNLOCK
echo Enter password to Unlock folder
set /p “pass=>”
if NOT %pass%==TYPE-PASSWORD-HERE goto FAIL
attrib -h -s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
ren “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” Personal
echo Folder unlocked successfully
goto End
:FAIL
echo Invalid password 
goto UNLOCK2
:FAIL2
echo Invalid password
goto end
:MDLOCKER
md Personal
echo Folder created successfully
goto End
:UNLOCK2
echo Last chance to enter correct password to unlock folder
set /p “pass=>”
if not %pass%==TYPE-PASSWORD-HERE goto FAIL2
attrib -h -s “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}”
ren “Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}” Personal
echo Folder unlocked successfully
:End

Now open that saved file, it will ask for password, type the password that you typed in the bat file before saving it, and hit enter, it will create a folder with name “PERSONAL” and then you have to keep your files in it,  after that, open LOCKER.BAT again and press y to lock that folder again, after you enter y, folder will disappear and it won’t appear NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, but it will just open by typing its CORRECT password.
