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

We've just created 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 available partitions. On the top you see buttons "Public Area" and "My Secret Files" area. On the left you see the same.

You also see the folders tree on the left and two files 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 any place inside the Files Pane).

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

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

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

You also see the "SECRETFILES (J:)" label in the folders tree. It 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 files/folders to this secure partition. You can do it 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 Shift key if you want to move files.

You see that all selected files have been copied to the secure media partition.

Now try to create folder in the new partition. Just click the white space by the right mouse button and click the "Create Folder" menu item from the Context Menu.
