    Depends on what type of file. Many file types do have password protect options. What type of file would you like to password protect?

    You answered the question correctly. By type of file I meant what program made the file.

    For Word, your protection options are under Tools > Options > Security. There you have options to create a password to open or modify a file.

    I think you can protect any ms office file with the password by clicking the protect file.. and I don`t understand what type of file you want to protect.. if you want to protect any folder.. there are some folderlocker softwares you can use them
