Automatic Opening Virtual Drives


There is an opportunity to mark some containers of the BestCrypt system as Auto-Mount. Then when the computer is booted up, the BestCrypt system will be activated and automatically ask for the passwords for the ‘virtual drive - container’ pairs to mount them. The Mount Container dialog will appear automatically every time the computer is booted up. When using Auto-Mount, users do not need to remember to start the BestCrypt program every time when the computer is started. In addition, the user is reminded of which virtual drives are marked for Auto-Mount.

To mark a BestCrypt container as Auto-Mount, open Change Container Properties dialog for the container and check the Mount at Startup check box in the Mount options property sheet.

When BestCrypt starts in Auto-Mount mode, it provides a very simple interface to open virtual drives. The Mount Container dialog box contains information about the file name of the container, and the letter for virtual drive (‘D’ for example). All that you need to do to open a virtual drive is to enter an appropriate password for the container.

If you wish, you may change the virtual drive letter that will be used to mount the container. If you do not want to open the current container, you may click Cancel and BestCrypt will offer to mount the next virtual drive that was previously marked as Auto-Mount.
