    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

    Password to many word files....

    My best guess would be try and see if the program you're using allows batch password protection of .doc files. If the program itself does not support it, there's probably plenty of alternatives programs that could. Axcrypt comes to mind. It's almost like truecrypt, but it only works on files instead of making a container.

    How to password protect a Word file.

    Password to many word files....

    just what i was thinking.. then you open the rar file and asks for the password for the 1st time and you can open the rest of the files without re typing the password.
