How to unlock a locked,
encrypted and password protected files or folders.
Unlock Files and Folders
Unlocking an individual files, multiple files, or a folder
that has been encrypted and password protected is easy with
Icon Lock-iT XP and is performed similarly to locking
files.
To unlock files or folders:
Right click on the locked file or files and select "Unlock
Selected Files".
Then, enter the password and Select OK.
As with locking multiple files, before completing the operation,
you can refine your list of files to unlock.
If you have forgotten or misplaced the password, you
can use the "Hint" providing you entered a hint
at the time that you locked the file.
Note:"Hints"
are not available for multiple file locking or unlocking.

Folders window
To open a file or folder that has been encrypted
with the new "self-decryptor",
simply open it. You will be prompted for the password,
and the file will self-extract.
