Changing Your Password
CAUTION! The SanDisk Security
software uses your password to electronically lock and unlock your drive.
If you forget your password, you will not be able to access the data on
the drive or write new data to it. You will have to erase the drive before
you can use it again.
- If you have more than one supported drive connected to your computer,
select the one with the password that you want to change.
- Select the Change password option.
- Type your current password in the Current Password
box.
- Type your new password in the New Password box,
using up to 25 characters.
- Retype your new password in the Verify Password
box.
- Type a hint to help remember your new password in the Password
Hint box.
- Select or clear the Enable auto unlock for this computer...
check box to signify whether you want the SanDisk Security software
to remember your new password for the selected drive on this computer.
- Click Update Security Settings.
CAUTION! After changing
your password, the drive remains unlocked
for as long as you continue your current work session. Then the SanDisk Security
software:
- Locks the drive when you shut down your computer, disconnect your
drive, or—depending on its configuration – your computer goes into
the sleep mode
- Requires you to type your password to unlock the drive when you
restart your computer or reconnect your drive, UNLESS you
selected the Enable auto unlock for this computer...
