StasherX is a Windows folder stealth tool developed and published by Next IT Computers, designed to hide selected directories without moving or encrypting them. Rather than relocating files or applying encryption, the software relies on low-level filesystem protection to conceal folders from view, combined with whitelist-based access control that ensures only approved applications can see and interact with the hidden directories. This approach allows users to keep sensitive folders in their original locations while restricting visibility to a defined set of trusted programs. The tool fits within the security and privacy software category, specifically serving use cases around folder protection, access restriction, and data concealment on Windows systems. Typical use cases include protecting confidential documents from unauthorized browsing, preventing unapproved applications from accessing restricted directories, and maintaining control over which software can view protected content on a given machine. The current and only listed version of StasherX is 5.13.0.14, with a total of one version recorded. Licensing is structured around usage scale: StasherX is free for Personal and Small Business use on up to five computers, making it accessible to individual users and smaller organizations without cost. Business and Enterprise deployments, by contrast, require contacting Next IT Computers directly to arrange appropriate licensing terms. In summary, StasherX provides a filesystem-level method of hiding Windows folders, pairs that concealment with application whitelisting so that only designated software can reach protected directories, and is distributed by Next IT Computers under a tiered licensing model that distinguishes between free small-scale use and commercial arrangements for larger organizations.
