The Lockers function allows the user to encrypt files by simply adding a file into a file directory. 

To create a locker, login to the PK Protect Manager, navigate to the Advanced->Lockers Page, and click Add Locker as shown in the picture.

The local device you chose in manager is the new locker. In our example, we named the file Locked. Anything that is dropped into this file path is encrypted with the Smartkey that was chosen during creation of the locker.
