IRONKEY ENTERPRISE USER GUIDE

USINg THE IRONKEY UNLOCKER ON WINDOWS
The IronKey Unlocker allows you to securely access your files on multiple operating systems.

It prompts you for your password, securely validates it, and then mounts your secure volume
where all of your files are stored on the IronKey.
Here is how to unlock your IronKey on Windows 2000 (SP4), XP (SP2), and Vista:

Step

Description

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 will mount your se-
cure volume with all your secure applications and files.

Entering the wrong password too many times will

permanently erase all of your data. After every three
attempts, you must unplug and reinsert the IronKey.

NOTE: Some operations require that your IronKey

connect to the Internet before unlocking. If it cannot
connect, click on “Edit Proxy Settings...” to configure
how your IronKey connects to the Internet.

Choose which action to take
when you unlock it.

By selecting the corresponding checkboxes before
unlocking your IronKey, you can view your secure files,
launch the IronKey Control Panel, unlock your Iron-
Key in Read-Only Mode, and/or securely log into your

my.ironkey.com account.
