I have 300 Microsoft Word files sitting in 300 folders.
I want to password protect these files with a single password in one go.
My understanding is that the easiest way to accomplish this would be to put each of these files in an archive.
I know that WinRAR has an option to put each file to separate archive, which would have been perfect if it saved these files in the same folder where the original file comes from.
How can I get this done?
I'm getting a list of the files (I'm using Everything search, but I'm sure the same can be accomplished using a regular windows file search), then right-clicking and selecting Add to Archive using WinRAR's context menu.
I'm happy to drag-and-drop these files somewhere.
But I need to preserve the directory structure of where the original files used to be.

you'll need WinRAR Installed
read WinRAR.chm (in your WinRAR folder) and make sure you understand the command line switches needed.
