[Format] 

  If the size of content is larger than 4GB, the USB drive should be formatted as NTFS.   

  Once  the  administrator  has  finished  copy  protection  settings  to  the  USB  flash  drive,  a 

unique  license  file  is  stored  in  the  device.  Before  formatting  the  device,  the  license  file 

should be backed up and copied again to the USB flash drive after formatting the device.   

 

[Create License File] 

    A  unique  license  file  is  generated  per  USB.  The  name  of  the  license  file  is 

“SecuDriveCG.lic”.   

 

 

  The license file is generated but 

not copied to the USB flash drive. The “

Login.exe

” file and 

System

” folder in “

Project Folder

” of “

Image

” tab should be manually copied to the USB 

flash drive. 

  The  number  of  licenses  generated  is  deducted  from  the  available  USB  flash  drives  with 

copy protection.   

 

Properties of the license file are set to “hidden” and “system file”, making it invisible based 

on Windows Explorer settings.   

  If  you  do  not  see  a  license  file,  open  your  Windows  Explorer  and  go  to
