I'm looking for ways to protect specific folders on my Windows 11 device, making them accessible only through Fingerprint Authentication.

Can i secure any folder in windows 11 and which can only open through fingerprint recognition (windows hello) technology.

I'm looking for ways to protect specific folders on my Windows 11 device, making them accessible only through Fingerprint Authentication. I want to ensure that only authorized individuals can view or modify the files within these folders, and I'm hoping to achieve this using the built-in Windows Hello fingerprint recognition technology. I'm not interested in securing the entire device, just individual folders.

If you have any suggestions or insights on how to implement this level of security, I'd greatly appreciate your input.

 

Windows folder security.

Is there a way to disable ALL windows security on folders? I'm using Windows 7 and trying to replace some system files that may be currupt and I get the "You need permission..." bitching from Windows. I know I can take ownership of the folder through the security tab but it's getting REALLY old having to do this for each and every file and folder I'm trying to overwrite. *Bang Head :banghead:

I'm the administrator for christ sake. If I want to open my drive and take a crap in it, do I need permission from Microsoft?

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
