How do i put a password on my messages, files or anything ? So that when i open them, it asks for a password ?

Hi,
There is no way to create password for files or messages on your phone . This is only applicable on PC. The only way you can protect or hide files or messages on your phone is by putting it on a folder and hide it to another folder again or rename the file,
To secure your mobile you jsut need to put security code or PIN code on it.

Thank you for using fixya

Lock code for hide folder

1. Click “Start”, “Run,” and then type cmd. When the command prompt opens type “CD C:\Test” (replace “Test” with the name of the folder you want to hide.)
2. Now type “attrib file +s +h” and replace “file” with the name of the actual file name you would like to hide.
3. Now, go back to C:\Test and look for your file or folder, it’s not there! You cannot find it through simply browsing around, through the command prompt, or even if you click “Show Hidden Files and Folders”.
4. To find the folder and it’s contents again simply go back to the command prompt, type “CD C:\Test” (of course, again replacing “Test” with the name of the folder,) and then type “attrib filename -s -h”. You should now be able to find your file again!

I can't hide my drives even i navigate the gpedit

you can't hide the drive, you can share or not share. However, you can hide and un-hide folder and files. go to the properties of the that folder or file, select hide.
if you login or any one else login as you, they will see the folder or file as a "masked" not hidden.
it will be hidden, when who ever login as themselves.
the other thing you can do is to set the security on the drive, folder or file via security setting. if you don't allow certain individual to access the drive, folder or file. this has to be done via local administrator login.
this is more secured. the individual require password to gain access to that area.
