Lock your files & folders by just changing the name of the folder using any file explorer programs like X-plore, FExplorer, SeleQ, etc..

Protect your file explorer programs with password, so nobody can rename locked folder except you... folder cant rename even from file manager..

Quote:
Method1:

Syntax:
Locked folder = "old folder name" + "any name" + "."
Example: "secret1."
Locked folder = "any name" + "."
Example: "abc."
Quote:
Method2:

Syntax:
Locked folder = " " + "..." (which can give many dots, but a few dots are better)
Example: " ..."
Locked folder = "." + "old folder name" + "."
Example: ".secret."
Locked folder = "." + "any name" + "."
Example: ".abc."
Locked folder = " " + "." + "any name" + "."
Example: " .abc."

* you can give any name to your folder to hide the contents (better to keep the folder in very inside path like, "e:\system\apps\secret")
* if you access the locked folder using any file explorer OR built-in file manager OR even from gallery, your program will get closed or show error message, you cant access locked folder or files.

* In Method1 you can access & delete the contents of locked folder using card reader.
* In Method2 you CAN'T...

* In both methods you CAN'T delete the locked folders from phone, you can create many locked folders, its better to keep a very few locked folders...
* After you locked your secret folder you CAN'T see any audios or videos or images of that folder using any programs like Gallery, File Manager, Smart Movie, DivX Player, DVD Player, MP3 Player, Power Mp3, etc..

* Method1 is safest method, coz, you can access the contents of locked folder using card reader too (chance to get data back) but not from phone..
* Use Method2 if you want a perfect lock that can't access from both phone and card reader.
* Lock the folders only in memory card, coz if any folder not getting deleted, you can format memory card by creating backup 1st, otherwise you should format your phone...

Actually I don’t know the principle of these methods, so, be careful while using, am not responsible for any valuable data loss...

1ST CHECK THIS HOT TRICK & SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCES

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK (don’t give more white spaces in the name while renaming [chance of data loss...])
