Storing files in private folders
Private folders are secure folders where you can store confidential files. When you place files into a private folder, ACDSee 14 moves
them from their current location into the private folder. Private folders are password-protected and the files in them can only be
viewed in ACDSee 14.
When you add files or folders to a private folder all information related to them is permanently removed from the database. Restoring
files and folders from a private folder does not restore information to the database. The only way you can preserve database
information related to the files or folders is to back up or export the database before you add them to a private folder.
To open the Private Folder pane:
In Manage mode, click View | Private Folder.
To create a private folder:
1. Close any open private folders.
2. Right-click the private folder icon in the Private Folder pane and select Create Private Folder.
3. In the Enter Password text box, type a password for the private folder. Your password must be less than 40 characters
long.
4. In the Re-enter Password text box, type the password again to verify it.
5. Click OK.
A new folder will not display in the Private Folder pane. Private folders are hidden and are only identified by their password. When
you have a private folder open you will see any subfolders that exist within the private folder, but do not confuse these subfolders
with the private folder itself.
To open a private folder:

2. Click View | Private Folder.

The contents of an open private folder remain visible until you close it. Remember to close your private folder if you have to
step away from your computer and do not want anyone to see its contents.
