I am close to releasing my demo but right now I am worried. You see I have some plugins from VisuStella but I am trying to lock the folders so the player can steal my assets and the plugins.

I thought of turning the assets and plugins folders into a Winrar file with a password.

My question then becomes if the player can still play my game or they can't.

Help Please?

In short, you can't.

There are some tools that try to do that, but for each there's also a simple tool that reverses the process. At the end of the day, in order to actually run a script or display an image in the game they need to be somehow converted into their normal form by the game - anyone can just grab them after that happens, regardless of how it happens.
