Need software advice...???

**shagga66** · 17-05-08, 03:37 PM

OK, I have an 8gig usb stick that has about 4 gig of data on it. I put some photo's on it, of the kids and went to a place to get them printed....one of the rabbit photo kiosks.
Now when I put the usb drive it, the machine scans the drive for ALL images....Not what I want to do, as I have allot of software, web page and xbmc loaded on it. I ended up with 1500+ images.

Now I dont want to zip or rar the files and directory's as I want to be able to access them quickly.

Can anyone suggest a method of hiding certain directory's on the drive so they dont get scanned.....Any ideas....????

Cheers

would it not be easier just to get a cheap usb stick and just put your kids photo on it ??

or Lock Folder XP is used to lock and hide folders and files on your computer utilizing latest security technologies.

I will have a look at Lock Folder
