USING THE IRONKEY UNLOCKER ON WINDOWS

The IronKey Unlocker allows you to securely access your les on multiple operating systems.

It prompts you for your password, securely validates it, and then mounts your secure volume

where all of your les are stored on the IronKey.

Here is how to unlock your IronKey on Windows 2000 (SP4), XP (SP2), and Vista:

Step Description

1 Plug in your IronKey and unlock

it with your password.

When you plug your IronKey in, the “Unlock Your Iron-

Key” window appears (if it does not, you can go to “My

Computer” and double-click on the IronKey drive).

Entering your password correctly (which is veried in

hardware) will mount your secure volume with all your

secure applications and les.

Entering the wrong password 10 consecutive times will

permanently erase all of your data. After every three

attempts, you must unplug and reinsert the IronKey.

2 Choose which action to take

when you unlock it.

By selecting the corresponding checkboxes before

unlocking your IronKey, you can view your secure les,

launch the IronKey Control Panel, unlock the IronKey

in a Read-Only Mode where les cannot be edited,

and/or securely log into your my.ironkey.com account.

Your selection of these checkboxes will be stored as

the default for the next time you plug your device in.
