Do you have a Microsoft Excel file with information you want to protect? Simply set up a password that will be required every time someone tries to open this file!
First, open your file in the Microsoft Excel application.
Once your workbook is open, go to the 'File' tab in the top menu of the Microsoft Excel application.
In the Microsoft Excel home page, open the 'Info' tab.
In this tab, click on 'Protect Workbook.' Microsoft Excel offers you different options to protect your file. The one we're interested in is 'Encrypt with Password.'
In the 'Encrypt Document' window that just opened, simply type your password in the 'Password' field, and then click the 'OK' button to confirm.
Be careful to remember your password, as Microsoft cannot help you recover it if you forget it. So, choose a password that you are sure not to forget, or you may risk losing access to your file and the information it contains.
Now you know everything you need about password protection for your Excel files!
