Windows 10: How do I password-protect all Word files in a folder?

Hello, I'm looking to make all the files in a folder on my computer read-only unless a password is entered. There are about 50 files, so an automated method would be ideal.

Editing the permissions of the folder won't suit the problem. There needs to be a password that enables editing when the file is open.

Is there any way to do this? Any help would be appreciated.

Password Protected Word Files

My Nokia Lumia 510 with Windows 7 will not allow me to open my OneDrive Password Protected Word files. It always gives me the message “Password-protected files can’t be opened”.



I really prefer to have all my files password protected so in order to resolve this I am considering purchasing a Lumia 630 which has Windows 8.1. Obviously I don’t want to waste money buying this model if I still can’t open my OneDrive Word files. Is anyone
able to tell me whether this will resolve the problem or alternatively suggest which model I should purchase? Many thanks. Suzie
