attrib +h +s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

set/p "pass=>"
if NOT %pass%==Your Password Here goto FAIL
attrib -h -s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"

echo Folder Unlocked successfully
goto End
:FAIL
echo Invalid password
goto end
:MDLOCKER
md Locker

Replace "Your Password Here" with your desired password.
Save the file anywhere in the system with a .bat suffix. Eg. something.bat
Double click on the something.bat file which you created, a new folder with name Locker will be created on the same location of .bat file you saved.
Copy The files you need to password protect into this Locker Folder.
Now open the .bat file again and type Y and then press Enter to lock your folder.
To unlock your file again, you need to open the .bat file and enter your password.
That's it! Please comment if you find difficulty in doing this. I will surely help you :)
