Once installed and launched the software utility, you will be brought to a simple GUI. Over here, users have option to either add files or folders by simply browse and add into them into the list. To be more user friendly, users can tick the files/folders restriction to be ‘Accessible’, ‘Writable’, ‘Deletable’ or ‘Visible’ so that they can be refrained from different level of accessibility. For instances, you may want to restrict certain files to be read only, or don’t want them to be deleted intentionally, or even better is ability to hide them from others’ visibility. After all have been defined, users can set a master password to lock the lists from being accessed by anyone else, so that no change can be made without your authority.

Compatible to run with any Windows system, the tiny utility consumes only 230kB and is free for download here for immediate use.
