I have a folder that contains a word document which I want to keep private.

How do I go about setting a password of my choice on it so that you must enter the password every time to open it?

I would like to pass word protect the whole FOLDER.

thanks

Word has its own built-in security options for applying passwords to open the file. A long enough random password is often secure enough.
