I am sorry but I am not sure, but I don't think so. Better check it out further so you will get the right information.

I have one of these and there is no security software included. It is just a raw storage device.

I believe there is a password protection function that can be enabled, and the cable appears to be a standard A to Micro B USB 3.0. The cable it comes with is definitely very short-- my tower has a USB input at the top and the drive has to sit on top of the tower when I use it or it dangles off my desk.

I would think you would just use the password you entered. I hope taking out the battery worked for you.

Yes-but when you hot sync, the application will ask for your password before it will continue.

I would think so. Mine are accessible with out having to enter passwords.... or being locked....

No, it is great. Do put a password so it doesn't run features when you don't want it to.

When you say locked do you mean with a password locked. If that's the case you should return it when I ordered mine all I did was ppower it up and it was good to go.

No, i don't think so. Actually I don't have the device. My mother has it and she went back to my country.

Nothing, your laptop would just see a new device. It won't lock automatically. You have to install and setup the software before any functionality is present.

The laptop I got was used and yes it had some information on it from the previous user but no passwords were set up, they were all disabled. There were some folders from the previous owner though.

there is no code protection when you start the device. but you can set up wifi password as same as wifi router to prevent strangers.

It has no encryption or password protection built-in. You want a Data Traveler Locker drive for that.

This device is OS agnostic, meaning that the OS has no knowledge of it. I use it all the time with a Windows PC when I don't have admin privies. The only limitation of a device like this is that it will not register anything if the user opens a browser and clicks on a URL using the mouse. This can make it hard to know which site the password is for. That said, I love this thing.

For it to be asking for a password, you must have made one. Otherwise it doesn't ask you. You would have to just slide the screen. Has someone else been messing with your tablet?

My device also came locked and password protected. I cannot find a way to contact seller except to "thank" them. I am returning the device.

Yes, no issues. Once you connect to the wireless network, you'll be asked for the password.
