Folders cannot be passworded.

XP and Vista do not use passwords to protect resources. NT-based operating
systems use permissions based on user account access instead.

Passwording of folders is not supported unless you zip them. When you do
(right click a folder, then "send to compressed folder") and then open the
zip file, you will find an option under file"add a password". Otherwise,
use third-party software. Google "password protect folders".
