Another preventing action that we can do is with setting the privation and Password Protection, and Inside The Computers will continue this post deeper with How to make our PC save.
Privation Setting
Now your drive already change to NTFS, so there is so many security option available for your computer, mostly which connected to the sharing file. If your PC have more than one user, so you can control the access to the file and folder. For example, few users maybe has full control to an item, mean while the others read only. On the Windows XP Professional, you have to turn off Simple File Sharing before use it. On My Computer, click Tools, Folder Options and select Tab View. Under the Advanced Setting, scroll and remove the mark (√) on “Use simple file sharing (Recommended).

To arrange the permission, right click file or folder, select Properties and select Tab Security. We can see all the PC user there, together with an option that possibility to arrange a level access such as Full Control, Modify, Read and Write. If we use Windows XP Home Edition, this feature is not available. Reboot the PC to the Safe Mode and log in as administrator. From that mode you can access security setting.
Password Protection
Each users on your system has they own profile which contain they private information. For example, we know there is a cookies, favorite and the desktop setting. This profile is on the C:\Documents and Setting\USERNAME and can be access by everyone except if they made it private. Right click that folder, select Properties, select tab Sharing and give the (√) mark in the box “Make this folder private”. If the user has no password, so a prompt will shown and ask you to create it. From that moment, the user password will be need to access the folder. Password also can be use for compression folder with zip Windows XP. Double click to open the compression folder and click the file, add a password. Enter the password, than enter once again to confirm the password and click OK to finish it.
