How to copy files to the password protected area on Compact Disc

We've just created the new secure partition on our DVD-RW disc. Please refer to the topic "How to create protected CD/DVD" to get more details.

The password protected partition on DVD was opened in the main program window

In the highlighted areas you can see the available partitions. On the top you see the buttons "Public Area" and "My Secret Files" area. On the left, you can see the same.
You also can see the folders tree on the left and two file panes on the right. Two file panes are used to copy/move files/folders between two different locations (folders). The file tree is used to change the current active folder for the active file pane.We need to copy our files to the just created "My Secret Files" secure partition.
1. Activate the left file pane (click anywhere inside the Files Pane).

2. Click the "My Secret Files" button that is located on the toolbar.

The empty encrypted dvd compact disc was opened in the main program

The secure area is empty now and has no files yet. We need to add new files here before burning the secure partition onto our DVD-RW disc.

Master Voyager remembers the latest entered password (it was entered into the program when creating a new secure partition in the Partition Manager) and will not ask for it this time. In the picture you can see the "TEMP" string where you can also see the My Secret Files Picture. This means that a new secure partition has not yet been burned to a CD and it is located in the temporary folder on your HDD.

You also see the the "SECRETFILES (J:)" label in the folders tree. This means that our secure partition was mounted as virtual hard drive J:
You can check it in Windows Explorer.

Now all we need is to copy the files/folders to this secure partition. You can do that in Windows Explorer and/or you can do it in Master Voyager.

3. Activate the right files pane.

You can see that "Folders on My Computer" has also been changed automatically.
Now just drag and drop files/folders from the right files pane to the left one. Please hold the Shift key if you want to move the files.

You can see that all the selected files have been copied to the secure media partition.
Now try to create a folder in the new partition. Just right click the white space and then click the "Create Folder" menu item from the Context Menu.

Copy all the other files/folders that you need to the secure partition.
4. If you need to copy files to the Public Area (available for everyone), click the "Public Area on F:" and then drag and drop files there.
Done. Now we need to burn all files and secure partitions to our Compact Disc.
