Edit an Encrypted Folder

After the folder is encrypted, you can use the Encryption drop-down menu to edit the folder.

The items shown in the menu depend on the status of the selected shared folder:

For unencrypted shared folder, the Encryption drop-down menu is disabled.

For an encrypted shared folder which is mounted, you can choose Unmount from the Encryption drop- down menu to unmount the folder, or Export key to save the encryption key.

For an encrypted shared folder which is unmounted, you can choose Mount from Encryption drop-down menu, and then enter or import the encryption key to mount the folder for access.

Note:

It is very important to remember the encryption key. It is strongly recommended that you export and save the encryption key. If you forget or lose the key, there is no way to rescue the encrypted data.

If an encrypted folder is unmounted, you cannot rename it or change its volume location.
