changed the data will be permanently lost.
5.11. USB Drive Lost & Found™
In case your portable storage device might get lost, you can now thanks to our Lost &
Found function, let the finder know who the owner of the device is. Even if you have
chosen to password protect all your data, the finder will still be able to contact you,
without having access to your protected data on the portable storage device.
To use Lost & Found, simply fill out the form fields provided in the Lost & Found
window and click the “Apply” button. A success message will confirm you that the
process was successful.
5.12. Work with the system tray menu
Via the Carry it Easy Icon in the
system tray you are able to reach all
the Carry it Easy options.
With the Quick start option, you are
able to view your My Documents
content or to start an Internet
Explorer window with your
Favorites/Bookmarks.
5.13. Safely remove hardware
Before you unplug your portable storage device (USB Drive) from the USB port of
your computer, you have to use the “Safely Remove Hardware” option from the
system tray, otherwise you risk corrupting the data stored on your USB Drive
(especially when using Windows 2000).
To “Safely Remove Hardware”, double-clicking the system tray icon and then select
the USB Drive you want to remove from the list and click “Stop”.
