Solve : Marking folders for encryption services in DOS?

Answer»

I can create a new folder in DOS with the following command:

mkdir F:\test\

How, in DOS, do I make it so that the folder, and any future contents, are encrypted?

Thanks in advance.If you MEAN MS-DOS, you can't.

If you mean the Windows Command Line, you can use "Cipher" on versions/Editions of windows that support NTFS file encryption to encrypt or DECRYPT files based on your user SID. You could always set it as read-only with this:

ATTRIB +r "path to folder" /S

As for proper encryption, I have heard Cipher.exe is the command-line encryption TOOL. Cipher.exe was included in all releases of Windows XP and in Windows 2000 SP3 onward.
