📝 Description

Esoft Practicals System is a desktop application designed to help Esoft students easily access, organize, and secure their practical lessons and tutorials.

The system automatically creates a structured folder environment for each student based on their course category, batch, and registration details. This ensures all learning materials are neatly organized and easy to locate.

Students can:

• Create an account and have their personal practicals folder tree generated instantly.
• Log in to access Practicals, Tutorials, and RAR tools.
• Open lesson PDFs directly from within the application.
• Secure their completed work by compressing and password-protecting folders via WinRAR.

The folder structure generation adapts dynamically to the selected course:

• DITEC → All lessons (1–10)
• CIT → Lessons 1–6
• Di(EXT) → Lessons 7–10

With its intuitive interface and automated file management, the Esoft Practicals System simplifies the process of managing study materials, protects completed work, and improves the overall learning experience.

---

🗂️ RAR Tab

The RAR Tab allows students to lock and archive their completed practical work using WinRAR.
Buttons are dynamically displayed based on the selected Course Category.

🔸 How it Works:

For example, if you selected the course DITEC, you may see buttons like:

• 1. Information Technology
• 1.1
• 1.1.1
• 1.1.2

Each button corresponds to a folder created for that specific practical lesson.

🔐 RAR Button Behavior:

• When you click a button:
  • The system locates the relevant folder within your user directory.
  • The folder is then compressed and password-protected using WinRAR.
  • This ensures your completed practicals are locked and preserved from modification.

🛡️ Helps maintain academic integrity by securing finished work before submission.
