Accessing files in vault

Ed

secureAccess places the decrypted file in the folder:

C:/Users/<username>/AppData/Local/Temp/SanDisk%20SecureAccessV3

You can easily check this by putting a PDF file in the vault and clicking on it from the Vault window of secureAcess.

The decrypted file will remain there until you quit secureAcess, which results in the deletion of all files in the above directory.

I can’t remember just now if the directory itself is kept.

When you click on a file in the Vault window two things happen: 1- creation of a decrypted copy placed in the above mentioned directory, 2- launching of an app associated with the type of the file. If no application has been associated with the type of the file produced, Windows asks you which app you want to use to open the file. This was annoying, in the case I mentionned before, because I just wanted the file to be accessible to KeyPass2 as a key to access a password database. So I wrote a little application in C++ winforms that just opens a window with a message “Decrypted file available. Press button” and an OK button to close it. The application does nothing else.
