Using My Device - Basic And Enterprise Features

Accessing My Secure Files

After unlocking the device, you can access your secure ﬁles. Files are automatically encrypted and

decrypted when you save or open them on the drive. This technology gives you the convenience

of working as you normally would with a regular drive, while providing strong, “always-on” security.

To access your secure ﬁles:

1. Click Files on menu bar of the DataLocker Control Panel.

• Windows: Opens Windows Explorer to the PRIVATE_USB drive.

• macOS: Opens Finder to the PRIVATE_USB drive.

2. Do one of the following:

• To open a ﬁle, double-click the ﬁle on the PRIVATE_USB drive.

• To save a ﬁle, drag the ﬁle from your computer to the PRIVATE_USB drive.

Hint:

You can also access your ﬁles by right-clicking the

DataLocker Icon

in the Windows taskbar

and clicking Secure Files.

Unlocking In Read-Only Mode

You can unlock your device in a read-only state so that ﬁles cannot be altered on your secure drive.

For example, when using an untrusted or unknown computer, unlocking your device in Read-Only

Mode will prevent any malware on that computer from infecting your device or modifying your ﬁles.

Enterprise devices can be forced to unlock in a read-only state by an administrator.

When working in this mode, the DataLocker Control Panel will display the text Read-Only Mode.

In this mode, you cannot perform any operations that involve modifying ﬁles on the device. For

example, you cannot reformat the device, restore applications or edit the Applications List, or edit

ﬁles on the drive.

To unlock the device in Read-Only Mode:

1. Insert the device into the USB port of the host computer and run the Unlocker.exe.

2. Check the Read-Only Checkbox below the password entry box.

Type your device password and click

Unlock

. The DataLocker Control Panel will appear with

the text Read-Only Mode at the bottom.
