🔒 Voldemort.py — My File Locking Project

Hi! My Name is Seth and I'm 10 years old and I made this so I can learn how to lock and unlock files with Python. It’s just for fun and learning — not for being mean or hacking!


Important stuff you gotta know:

  • You run voldemort.py to lock your files.
  • It makes a secret key file called thekey.key by itself.
  • Don’t delete the thekey.key or you won’t be able to unlock your files later!
  • Don’t run decrypt.py by itself — it won’t work right. Only run it from voldemort.py!

How it works:

  1. Run voldemort.py
  2. It looks for files and locks them with a secret key.
  3. It asks you for a secret phrase.
  4. If you type the right phrase, it runs decrypt.py and unlocks your files again.

Why no key on GitHub?

Because every time you run voldemort.py, it makes a new secret key! That way everyone gets their own secret code, like a real spy.


This is just for fun and learning!

Don’t run it on important files or stuff you care about.
If you don’t understand something, ask a grown-up or a teacher to help you.


What’s in the project?

  • voldemort.py — The main script that locks and asks for the secret phrase
  • decrypt.py — The file that unlocks stuff (but only run it from voldemort.py!)
  • thekey.key — The secret key that helps unlock files (created when you run voldemort.py)

Remember!

  • Don’t run this on files you need!
  • Keep your secret key safe and don’t share it with others.
  • Always run decrypt.py only from voldemort.py.

Thanks for checking out my project! Happy coding! 🐍😄
