GiliSoft File Lock Pro is a full-service file lock and encryption software with many useful extra functions.

You are given access to a Military Grade Encryption Tool, allowing easy encryption of files and folders. It can hide your files, folders, and drives, making them read-only and securing them with password protection. You can also lock folders on internal hard drives, flash drives, external USB drives, thumb drives, memory cards, pen drives, and your network drive.

One neat function included with GiliSoft File Lock Pro is the ability to lock a LAN-shared folder. Windows does not have a feature allowing you to lock folder access via a password for your folder(s) shared on the network, and this function will effectively limit access to them. There is also a File Shredder that enables fast, safe, and reliable shredding of files, as well as an integrated Disk Wiper to help wipe unused disk space.

GiliSoft File Lock Pro supports locking a file or folder from the Windows Explorer Context Menu and also supports drag n' drop of files and folders to simplify the process further.
