How to change the administrator username and password

To make the data stored on your media vault more secure, you can assign an administrator username and password.

To access the User Settings screen:

Double-click the HP Media Vault icon on your desktop.

Click Customize your HP Media Vault’s setting.

Click the User Settings tab.

2.Enter a password in the Password box.

3.Re-enter the password in the Confirm Password box.

4.Click Accept or Cancel. (If you click Cancel, the username and password will not be accepted.)
