Giveaway: Folder Warden (Lifetime) – Protect Folders with Password and Encryption
Leona What is Folder Warden?
Folder Warden protects folders on Windows by locking, hiding, or encrypting them with a password. It keeps each folder in its original location and does not rename or move your files. Locking works quickly, while AES-256-GCM encryption adds stronger protection for sensitive data. You can also use a recovery key if you forget the master password. The program checks each lock or access change before reporting that the action was completed.

Key Features
- Lock folders instantly without renaming, moving, or packing them into containers.
- Encrypt files with AES-256-GCM and derive keys with Argon2id.
- Hide protected folders separately from locking and encryption.
- Verify each lock and unlock action against the folder before reporting success.
- Recover access with an offline recovery key if the master password is forgotten.
- Add folders through drag-and-drop or the Explorer right-click entry.
- Decrypt protected data without a license, including after reinstalling the app.

You request the code by email, install the giveaway build, then enter the master password and license code. Updating this build may break registration, so keeping the giveaway build avoids that risk. Support is excluded, so activation problems may require self-troubleshooting. Keep the installer and license email in case you need to register again. The process has no supplied support channel for troubleshooting. This giveaway suits home users who want long-term folder protection on one computer.
