The default path shown here is defined, and can be changed, in the Virtual CD
Settings dialog (see page 33).
Generally, the path shown here is selected (white letters on a dark blue background)
when this dialog opens. Thus when you enter characters, the entire default name is
replaced by what you type. All you need to enter is a name for the file itself, as Virtual
CD automatically adds the default path (see above) and the .VC4 file name extension.
Click on Hard disk info for a quick view of the available disk space on your hard
disk(s).
Select the Automatically create a folder for the virtual CD/DVD option if you want
Virtual CD to create a separate folder for the files that make up your virtual CD. Since
each virtual CD can consist of several files (see "Structure of a Virtual CD Container"
on page 7), it can be difficult to tell later which files belong to which virtual CD. This is
why we recommend leaving this option active for every virtual CD you create.
Click on Next to continue. The next dialog is the last one you need to edit before the
virtual CD is created.
Additional Settings for the Virtual CD
You can assign a password to prevent unauthorized use of a given virtual CD. Once
a password has been assigned, it must be entered before the virtual CD can be
inserted or ejected, or its properties edited. When you assign a password, you have to
enter it twice to avoid typographical errors ('typos').
The password merely protects the CD from unauthorized access; the virtual
CD data itself is not encrypted.
