Delete a Safe

Ludger Weinroth
  • Updated

You can delete a Safe via its context-menu (simply hover with your cursor over the Safe in the main menu) or delete the Safe manually. From version 2012 on, Safes are saved in the "My Documents"-folder under "Steganos Safe".

In earlier versions Safes are saved at:

C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Application data\Steganos (Windows XP and earlier)
or
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Steganos\ (Windows VISTA/ Windows 7/ Windows 8)

If you don´t find the folders, make sure to enable the Windows option "show hidden files and folders" ( http://windows.microsoft.com/de-de/windows-vista/show-hidden-files ).

    Dear reader,

    yestday i had converted harddisk X to another letter (y)

    so i thought to day it was converted. But it did not open.

    so i imported again the harddisk. so it was X and not Y.

    I did this twice.

    So i like to remove Y . 

    how ?

    Can't  find your suggestion where to manually delete it.
    i have windows 10
