Securing a File or Folder 
To secure a file or folder with SecureFolder: 
1.  Right-click the file or folder, and select 
Secure.
 
2.  If you are securing a folder, the SecureFolder – Secure 
dialog appears, asking if you are sure that you want to 
secure the folder.  Click 
Yes
 to confirm that you want to 
encrypt the data.  (Select the 
Do not show this dialog 
again
 check box if you do not want to be prompted for 
confirmation when securing files and folders in the future.)  
This dialog does not appear when securing files. 
3.  If this is the first time that you are securing a file or folder, 
and you have not yet specified an emergency recovery 
passphrase, the 
SecureFolder Emergency Recovery 
Passphrase
 dialog appears.  See the SecureFolder 
Emergency Recovery Utility section below for more 
information. 
4.  SecureFolder begins an encryption process.  A dialog 
indicates the progress as the files are encrypted.  The 
SecureSuite icon will be added to the file or folder icon once 
the file or folder has been secured. 
Note: You cannot secure a folder that contains secured files. You 
must first unsecure the secured files and then secure the folder and 
all of its content.
