Privacy Drive is a program that provides you with a quick way to hide content from unauthorized users. This application enables you to create virtual drives where you can import the files and folders you wish to conceal and encrypt them using powerful encryption algorithms.
The Welcome screen of the utility lets you choose between 3 types of tasks: Create, Open, and Mount. In my testing, I used the Create tool to build a virtual drive. Since I was working with the trial version of the app, the default access password was "Demo" and couldn't be changed. However, I was able to alter the encryption algorithm and other settings. The program created the needed virtual driver in which I was then able to transfer my personal data. The app took a very small amount of time to mount and dismount the selected virtual drives and didn't slow down the performance of my system in the process.
Another advantage is that the utility provides you with a quick way to format drives and get access to detailed information about your partitions.
The only thing I'd add to this program would be an integrated help manual which might come in handy for beginner computer users.
All in all, Privacy Drive proves to be a reliable solution for concealing data on your Windows computer. It provides you with various advantages, works perfectly, and comes with a reasonable price.
