O K, I see what you mean, I guess that's what backups are for.

Thanks

Re: Deleting Locked private folders
Right, I understand you point, but we have a dilemma here - what if someone assigned a password and cannot remember it? It can be just from testing reasons, or, a forgotten password. In this case it will be impossible to delete that folder, which will turn it in to a annoying "ghost folder". After some consideration we've come to conclusion that ability to delete password-protected folders has nothing to do with security - passwords are intended to protect your data from unauthorised reading, but not from deletion.

Deleting Locked private folders
Hi Vlad, I'm really enjoying the new features and fixes on the 3.16 b.830 .

There is one thing that bothers me a little. When you have Private folders and something is deleted from them that goes into a Private Recycle Bin, someone can still empty the recycle bin or delete it. There might be something in there I would want to restore later.

Would it be practical for the program to ask for a password to delete a private folder?
