Secure folder...?

Firstly, I have used the search and gone through the various threads that results in but still haven't found what I'm looking for...
Is there any software out there, free preferably, that can password protect a folder so that the contents are hidden and inaccessible unless the folder is unlocked?
I know I can encrypt etc. but I really just want to select a folder and be able to lock it to all access until it is unlocked by a password.
Got a requirement to store various documents, password and setting details, name sensitive data etc. without the hassle of protecting and unprotecting each one by one at a time.
My ideal would be an application with a main screen that is simply a lock and unlock icon to do the business on any selected folders that have been setup via an options menu etc.
Thanks...
Use Resco explorer, you can encrypt individual files / folders, with a password...
Thanks for that
