1.

urn on (checkmark) the option at the bottom called 'Apply these permissions to
objects and/or containers within this container only', then click OK. You should be
back at a screen that looks something like this.

2. Turn on (checkmark) the option at the bottom called 'Replace all child object permissions
with inheritable permissions from this object', then click OK.

3. Windows will set the deny permission on every file and subfolder under this folder,
unless you have set up one to not inherit permissions from its parent (you probably
haven't done that).
Note: Deny permissions take precedence over allow permissions, so no one will be
able to delete any file until/unless this permission item is removed. This will
block other apps from being able to delete either (for example, the Photo Gallery or
Media Center).

h the advent of technology, portable USB devices like pen drives, flash drives,
external hard drives, etc. help us to carry data on the go. But these devices
have their own disadvantages. USB storage drives are prone to virus attacks
as they may be plugged in to infected devices. In such cases, the data on the
USB drives may get corrupted or even deleted. A USB drive may also fall into
wrong hands; hence your privacy may be compromised.

 Password protection: Encrypt your data on USB (External hard drive, Pen
drive etc.) drives with password.
 Hidden drives: Protected drives are automatically unmounted, hence
preventing data access and protect the drive from being formatted.
 Speed: Quick encryption and decryption mode available, although deep
encryption mode (more secured) is also supported, which takes more time
compared to quick encryption.
 Software portability: Portable mode is available to encrypt and decrypt
USB drives independently (Windows Only).
Lock drive using StorageCrypt

The following steps will help you to encrypt an external USB drive with
