hey everyone this is Andrew from Tech
Talk
today I'm going to be showing you how to
lock a folder on your desktop or
anywhere on your computer so what we're
gonna be doing is turning a folder into
a dmg locked folder today so let me show
you how to do that the first step you're
gonna do is come down to applications
click on that and go to Disk Utility
you'll click on that and that will bring
up this whole system right here you're
gonna go up to file new image and if you
already have the folder created you're
gonna go image from folder then you're
gonna find the folder that you want
you'll see right now it is just a normal
folder on my desktop I'm gonna select
that I'm gonna hit choose ok brings up
some different options it will let you
know where it's trying to save it to you
can encrypt the file and you can also
tell what image format you would like as
far as all these different ones right
here when you have that all set
everything's typed in correctly you're
gonna go down and hit save now it's
creating that folder that'll take a
moment here and you'll see right here it
says operation successful and you can
hit done
alright now you can go back to your
desktop and you'll see that that folder
was created to open that folder just
double click that will open it and bring
up the image that you have right here
whatever was in that folder as well you
can eject the folder when you're done
with it but that's the way to turn a
folder into a dmg locked folder I hope
