Thank you Zsolt,
Unfortunately, it did not quite work that way. When I lock a folder in Dropbox in mac, this folder is modified - even without encryption. Upon sync, this folder is not usable in windows any more. The folder is there, but the contents seem erased. They are probably moved somewhere else in mac?
The only solution I could find up to now is to make the folder hidden/unhidden independently in each platform using the standard functionalities of mac and windows. All password-lock-folder software I have tried modify the folder in a way that prevents the other platform to use the folder upon Dropbox sync.
This may be interesting to work on!
