Floppy Disk Locking

[naikosen]

How to lock a Floppy disk so that no body can get access to it using any computer?

My colleague has done it. He gave me a floppy and asked me to see what is inside. As I put it into my computer and clicked on the FDD icon, it asked me for password. I tried to open it in DOS and found the same message.

I asked a lot to him for the trick, but he did not reveal. So stubborn! Help me please.

sure check these ways -

1) make ur files of a floppy in a .rar or .zip file and give a password to it ...no one can open it on any computer without using anything

2)use Folder Lock

3) Use Floppy Encryption utility

Try using "Bad Copy Pro". It is used to recover the data from unusable Floppy disks. Use it so that u can easily get the data inside te floppy as it isnt damaged.

I think this is what he is trying to say.

He is saying that when we click 3 1/2 Floppy (A in my computer it does not display the contents instead it asks for a password and verifies if the password matches with what was keyed in first.

If it matches then it proceeds to show u the content.

Please correct me if I am wrong

I found the solution for all this.
Use 'CD-Lock' to password protect all removable medias.
