How to lock files and hide them from your team
Files and sharing 1:20
Locking decides what someone can do with a file they can see: open it only, or nothing without a password. Hiding is a different thing, it removes the file from view entirely for the people, members or roles you choose.
- 1 Right-click a file and choose Lock.
- 2 Choose View only to let people open it but never download it.
- 3 Choose the full lock to put it behind a password, without which it will not open.
- 4 Choose Hide instead to remove it from view for everyone, for specific members, or for a whole role.
- 5 Find your own hidden files any time under Hidden.
Some files need extra care. Dosya gives you two tools. Lock, and hide.
Right-click, Lock. View only means people can open it, but never download it.
Full lock puts it behind a password. Without the password, it doesn’t open at all.
Hiding is different. A hidden file simply isn’t there for the people you choose.
Hide from everyone, from specific members, or from a whole role.
You’ll always see your own hidden files here, under Hidden.
