When connected to a computer it shows itself as an USB mass storage device so anybody can plug it in and use. Now, is it possible that I can somehow prevent others from accessing it while I am away ?

I use folder lock, but the files are visible in linux and only a single folder named "Locker" can be locked in case of USB drive.. __________________ Steam Profile \|\| Personal Page Warp drive active.
