Thanks Sil for the comprehensive reply. Seems it was fortunate that I did not persevere with Bitlocker. I already have a SanDisk thumbdrive which
is password protected. It has plenty of capacity to store the text documents which I wish to keep safe and as you say, my main PC is always connected to the internet so is open to clever hackers. I normally open
my SanDisk data on my off-line PC and play around with the data there so
I guess this is pretty secure. I just thought it would be handy if I could have a similar arrangement on a folder in my main PC but in view of your comments I will stick with the SanDisk.
Cheers Peter
