Password Protect Flash Drive In VB 2008?
Feb 8, 2010lately, ive had a lot of free time and have been trying to password protect my flash drive in VB 2008. and ive figured out almost everything i want with it, but ive come to a bit of a roadblock. as of right now, ive got 2 accounts, but thats all ive done so far, because every account has like 3 if statements, and it would start to accumulate a bit of i made anymore. so, ive been looking into using a database, and having it retrieve the password and username from there. ive searched for hours, and have found a lot of little bits and pieces of code, but nothing that would work for my situation. Will somebody tell me how i would:
1: make sure that the password and username match in the database when i click the confirm button
2: add a new username and password to a database when they want to make their own account
3: save changes to the database when i log out and move to another computer
also, is there a simple way to log the date, time, IP address, and Username, put it in a text file, and email it to me? i would also like to know how to open a flash drive using its name, and not its letter, cause its a different drive letter on different computers.

May 19, 2009is it possible to have my app protect a folder's files from being viewed by other users. like, if i set the command to protect a folder, then if anyone tries to access that folder will be prompted with a msgbox.
it probably means having a separate app loading at windows startup and constatly running in the background to make sure that folder isn't being accessed.

View 2 RepliesVB 2010 - ScreenSaver With A Password To Protect Computer
Nov 18, 2011OK, so, I made a program that locks the computer with a password, to help you protect data from other people. It's quite simple, you open the program, it shows up in full screen, "To access this computer please type in the password"....etc.
BUT, I want it to have a "Guard". To make it act like a screen saver does. That's my plan: So, you typed in the password, and close the program. And then, if you didn't move your mouse, or press a key, or you're not watching a movie, for more than 6 minutes, I want it to automatically launch the program. Until now, I've just put in Form2.Show in the Form1's (which is the password-protect program) FormClosing class. I also made the Form2 on Full Screen, and it's opacity to 0%. That's where you will move your mouse. I made all the code until now, but I need code for making it act like a screen saver.
VS 2008 - How To Password Protect Flash Drives
Jan 29, 2010Recently I've started experimenting with Visual Basic 2008, and just out of curiosity am trying to password protect my flash drives. (At the school I go to, it takes a couple seconds for things to disappear). So, I've got it to the point where I can have multiple "accounts" with their own passwords, ive got a lost password button, and a bunch of other stuff. But, anybody can just click out of it and go into the folder themselves, so I've been looking for a way to lock the focus on my password box. I've looked for hours and have found a lot of things that keep the focus on like a second form, so you cant go back to the first one, but I was still able to launch applications and things because the desktop was still active. I still haven't found one that keeps the focus locked on the first form and nothing else.

View 1 RepliesPassword Protect A Single Form In A Winforms Application?
Nov 21, 2011I've a winforms application that is using SQLite database. There is no encryption on the database (data has to be shared with other user). It is a stand alone application with a stand alone local database.
The difficulty I'm encountering is when people go to bring all the data together.The databases are attached, data imported, but records are differentiated by a database GUID.At any rate I am desiring to have a database selection screen that is protected by a password to prevent users mistakenly switching databases (and some level of protection against malicious use).
Thinking it's probably not a particularly good idea to store the password in an unecrypted database.Security is not a large issue as this is only distributed to users that need the software.
What would be the best method to have the user type a password when they attempt to access the database selection screen? ShowDialog? Pop open a new child form with a password TextBox, then on validation (via button?) close the password form and open the protected form?I see a fair bit about protecting a whole application, but not so much about a specific form.
