Hi

Please follow the steps below to reset your password for Protected Folder.

1. Please run your computer in Safe Mode with Networking. Guide to boot in safe mode: https://www.digitalcitizen.life/boot-safe-mode-networking-windows-10/
2. Please download the tool from the link: http://testdemo.iobit.com/PFTool.exe
3. Please run PFTool.exe and follow the instructions in PFTool.exe to finish the process.
4. After resetting the password, please get out from the Safe Mode, then start your computer normally to open Protected Folder. Then you can set a new password for it. Please remember the new password carefully.

Have a nice day!
