As far as I have tried it, I think, it's only a little difficult to get the password hacked / changed.
It increases the vulnerability and reduces its popularity.
Yet, it's a powerful tool. It can't be hacked by novices.

I am not sure that lock can stop deleting file..It can control attributes of file but cant control the tickets sent to windows.

DEAR
I experimented it y'day and found that anyone having simple knowledge of PCs, can change the pw from that file and ruin ur trick.
To save it, just hide the locker file.

There's a problem here.
The password supplied, even if incorrect, succeds to open the folder and hence it fails.

Not a bit tedious.
I suggest u don't keep the locker.bat file instead u keep the text document with u.
whenever u want to use its features, open it and save as anyname.bat
What an Idea?

One of the main issue is that the folder gets disappeared but the .bat file still remains intact. So in this case, the user can open the bat file in a text editor and can reveal the password. By this way, the idea of locking a folder gets weak. There is only a way to kick this case is that one should place this .bat file in a removable disk and execute whenever the user want to hide/unhide the folder from the removable device itself. But in some cases, this solution also doesnt seem of working. isnt?

Yes, Its true but even if file will be visible. The new user will not be aware that this file will be having the password etc. So can be granted to use. what do u say?
