I also dislike the fact the USB drive wants to auto sync Media Center not sure the logic behind that when there is no basis upon which to think the user even desires to use the USB for that purpose.The SanDisk SecureAccess software is designed to protect sensitive data on your drive. It’s not complicated but the instructions could be more user friendly. To resolve I deleted what I placed on the drive, launched the security program, logged in with password I created, then dropped the folder I wanted locked inside.

Is there a way to do this and I’m just missing it, or do I need other software for this purpose?ĮDIT: Resolved. What I need is for the information I place in “My Vault” to be blocked from access unless the person knows the password. I followed the RunSanDiskSecureAccess_Win directions on my Windows Vista PC and made “My Vault” secure, but for reasons I can’t understand, I can place this drive in any computer and access the files (read) without having to enter the password. I purchased the Cruzer Fit USB Flash Drive because I needed a secure storage device that would password protect an entire folder.
