Want to hide files in a secret locked folder in Windows 10 or 11? Encrypting a folder allows you to lock the folder to anyone who does not have an encryption key. We'll show you how to encrypt files in Windows 10 or 11 Pro or Enterprise editions in File Manager, and how to use AxCrypt to lock folders if you're using the Home edition.
