Editor's review
Keeping your data secret when you are using an office PC or a shared computer at a cyber caf矣an be a difficult task. Even if you hide a folder in Windows, someone else can change folder settings and discover it. Now if you are looking to assuredly hide and protect your private data you should consider using the Wise Folder Hider Pro 3.23 application. The tool allows you to protect the data with a password and then hide it completely from prying eyes. In fact you can even create hidden folders on a removable media like a pen drive.
Once you launch the Wise Folder Hider Pro 3.23 application you are welcomed by a minimalistic screen with limited options. To start with you can add a file or an entire folder to the software by choosing the relevant option from the top menu. Next you can enter the password of your choice to lock the folder. The tool also allows you to completely hide an USB drive without much effort. It is possible to drag any file into the program window and make it hidden. Further the tool also adds on to the Windows context menu and thereby allows you to hide a file by just right clicking on it. However the application is not exactly full proof as the contents hidden by it can be discovered by advanced disk analyzer tool. On the technical front, the application comes in a compact setup package of just 2.1 megabytes and runs even on the latest Windows 8 operating system.
We mark the Wise Folder Hider Pro 3.23 with a score of two rating stars for successfully hiding important files with minimum effort. However its developers need to consider adding more features and strong encryption standards to increase its usability.
