Restricting Access

[Connor Smith]

Hello,
I was wondering how I can restrict users from pointing their broswer to certain areas of my xenForo installation. For example, I do not want 'random' users to access the "install" directory and so on.

How can I do this?

Use htaccess password protection.

Use htaccess password protection.

Since I am a nub with htaccess, would you mind in informing me how that is done?
