I have received various messages through either Gmail or Facebook pages about various issues people are having while practicing this tutorial. So I decided to update the tutorial and run some internal tests over and over again. This is done so that this tutorial can really run on all Windows operating systems. And now I can confirm that this tutorial can go well if you carefully follow the process.
If you’re still in doubt, you can try this tutorial with a test file first. Even if it is lost, it will not hurt you. All of this just in case this method doesn’t work for you.

Suggestions for readers:
Do not use passwords with place, problems with batch files can occur. If you lose access to your locked folders, third party applications will allow you to access the hidden files by saving them again.
