RTG Lockdown Description
RTG Lockdown is a simplistic application designed to lock away folders that contain important information. The program is straightforward and lightweight, allowing you to easily unlock the folder whenever you need to access the files.
Easy to use folder locker
RTG Lockdown features a simple GUI, through which you may operate its functions, however, the process runs from Command Line. This feature ensures that the application is friendly enough to be used by any user and lightweight, so it does not take up significant system resources.
The afferent documentation can guide you through the first run of RTG Lockdown: when opening the program for the first time, you need to click the ‘Initialise locking sequence’ button, then move the desired files in the Lock directory.
The program can only lock a single folder, the one named ‘Locked’ which is deployed once you extract the contents of the archive. RTG Lockdown does not require installation: just move the files into the folder and hide it.
Password protection for your folders
RTG Lockdown prompts a Command Line window, which requires that you confirm the folder locking. The source is fixed, so you need to move the important files in the ‘Lock’ directory, in the program’s folder. The location is hidden from sight and cannot be accessed until unlocked.
However, for security reasons, a password is required for unlocking the folder. You can use the default key, but it is public and any user can find it with ease.
Advantages and disadvantages of RTG Lockdown
RTG Lockdown is very lightweight and does not require installation. The protected folder can be found in its host directory, thus you can easily access the important files from the removable drive, on any PC. However, the password cannot be changed: you may only request a new application, with the new password integrated in it. This step requires that you create an account on the website.
