The only way to do what you want, is to put your files in a password protected zip file. You can't magically make the OS support password protected folders, any solution would involve a custom file format and a program that can read it.

Just adding to CG's reply:

All you need is to just compress the folder with a password. Take a look at this article: Zip and Unzip in the MFC way[^]
