"My folder covers a lot, including my personal information. However, I don't know how to prevent people from accessing unnecessaryly. Although Windows 10 provides built-in features that can protect files/folders, my computer is a Windows 7 system, and I know that built-in features are not as safe as other protections. Is there any other better solution?"
Folders provide a more convenient way to store, access, and retrieve data. You can add your files to a folder and place them on your desktop screen instead of expanding specific folders so you can access the information you need at any time. In general, everyone has free access to open spaces even without your permission, which is why you need to protect your files/folders. Password protection or locking your files/folders has the following benefits:
Protect the "data" source and completely prevent data leakage;
Encrypted documents, drawings, etc. are generated by computer and are only available within the scope of authorization;
The entire encryption process does not require manual intervention, nor does it affect the original work habits and management processes.
Other people cannot view encrypted files/folders without your permission.
In order to meet all your needs, a professional encryption software called Ukeysoft File Lock can replace the basic built-in protection of the computer, and can easily encrypt your files/folders with password to prevent unauthorized people from viewing them. In addition, Ukeysoft File Lock is a military-grade file encryption tool that supports all Windows versions, such as Windows 10, Windows 8. Windows 7 and Windows XP. It has many advantages over the Windows built-in file protection system:
Hide files, folders, or drives from all other users, including administrators.
Password protection for files, folders and drives.
Protect an unlimited number of objects.
Access data restrictions for local network users and Internet users.
Lock files/folders so users can't delete, add or modify them.
Support FAT, FAT32 and NTFS systems.

In the pop-up window, select the file/folder/drive you want to lock and click "OK", it will be successfully protected by the password.
