Bat to exe compiler: http://bit.ly/6jmbgY

COMPILE THE BAT TO PREVENT SOMEONE FROM READING THE PASSWORD.
This tutorial will show you how to make a super-hidden folder with your protected files in it and how to write a batch file which opens that folder when you type the correct password. sure you can achieve similar result with encrypted archives, but where's the fun in that?
~~Batch file code~~
@echo off
set pass=123
echo please enter the password
set /p ui=
if %ui%==%pass% (goto open)
echo wrong password
pause & exit
:open
start hidden
exit
~~Batch file code~~
