Password Folder Beta - BSOD

[ohmeohmy]

I'd like to use Password Folder Beta. I installed the file and tested it's operation, but within 10 minutes I BSOD'd with a "cache_manager" error. I then rebooted 6 times and BSOD'd each time within 5 minutes (2 times during boot). At my next reboot I immediately uninstalled program and BSODs ceased. I have a Gateway cpu with an Intel Core 2 Quad processor - 64bit, 64bit Windows 7 home premium, and 8 -gig of ram. The program looks nice, but I just can't use it. Sorry. :cry:

Ruminating on Password protected folders

 

Hi

As you all know Windows has the option to share folders or to make them private.

What would have been nice was that one had the opportunity to move folders one had made private with a password to another protected folder fx. called Protected folder or whatever one would call it without calling attention to its function - and have that option as a command in the rightclickmenu.

In that folder the folders and files would not necessarily have to be protected by passwords too.

i.e. create a folder for this and then create a command in the right click menu that give you the opportunity to move the folder into protected storage in the password protected folder you just created.

This can all be done by hand, but it is of course easier to have it done for you with a program, on the other hand you would only have to do it once.

This is not to detract from the possible usefulness of a program - just to show that there are other possibilities :-)

My very sensitive information I don't leave on the computer,-not passwords either - I have all this on a piece af paper that I have written out and have in a place where only I know where it is.

One suggestion could be between the pages of a book that are seldom used. :-) but find your own "secret place" :-)

After I have made the list I delete it from the computer and clean up.

Hi ohmeohmy

Did you have a user password for opening your computer - and did you place that in the protected folder too?

Hi guys,

 

For BSOD, please have a look at post #4, itobe's replies and the following ones in IOBit Password Folder 1.0 Beta 1 .

 

If it is OK with you, this thread may be moved to the linked destination.

 

Cheers.

Hi solbjerg

I tried password protect folder on a single folder only. It hid the folder. The program appeared to work "as advertised" with the exception of causing BSODs. I've had no BSODs since uninstalling the program.

I had this happen to me too. though I have Win7 Professional. Always a crash with cache_manager

 

Then I had BSOD crashes with various files like NTFS.sys.

 

These didn't happen until I protected folders. Since uninstalling they have stopped.
