How to move files to a secret vault
To move files to a secret vault:
- Open the main application window of Kaspersky.

- In the Secret Vault section, perform one of the following:
If you do not have a secret vault yet
- Click the Create vault button.
- In the Secret Vault window, click Add and select files in Windows Explorer or drag and drop files into the Kaspersky window.
The selected files appear in the Secret Vault window.

- To be able to access the secret vault quickly, select the Create desktop shortcut for secret vault check box.
- Click the Continue button.
- Fill out the Password to access the secret vault and Confirm password fields and click Continue.
- Select what to do with the source copies of files outside the secret vault:

- Click the Done button.
The list of secret vaults displays the secret vault you just created.
- To lock the secret vault, click the Lock button.
Data in a locked secret vault becomes available only after a password is entered.
If you already have a secret vault
- Click the I already have a secret vault link to go to the Secret Vault window.
- In the Secret Vault window, select your secret folder and click Open.
- Enter the password and click Open in Windows Explorer.
This opens the secret vault in Windows Explorer.
- Move your files to the secret vault.
- Close the Windows Explorer window.
- In the Kaspersky interface, in the Secret Vault window, click Close.
When adding files with identical names, which differ only in character case, to the secret vault, one of the files can be unavailable when trying to open the secret vault. To avoid data loss, we recommend adding such files to different secret vaults or changing the file names to completely unique ones.
