    Hi Leo,

    I'd add this to the Suggestions Thread - I know that Ben looks at this regularly and passes it on to the team.

    Some quick questions first:

    1. Do you mean the opportunity to set specific passwords per folder?
    2. Would these passwords be asked for when anyone accessed the folder on the machine, live desktop or only when attempting to share the folder (i.e. sync it to their account)?
    3. Doesn't the option to share a folder cover your needs by allowing you to choose who can see the folder and what access they have?

    Thanks for your help!

    1. Do you mean the opportunity to set specific passwords per folder?
        Leo: Not each folder. It is a option for user.

    2. Would these passwords be asked for when anyone accessed the folder on the machine, live desktop or only when attempting to share the folder (i.e. sync it to their account)?
        Leo: Control to who can access the folder when public computer.

    3. Doesn't the option to share a folder cover your needs by allowing you to choose who can see the folder and what access they have?
        Leo: Yes. I see. This function for publice computer user only.
