5. KNOWN LIMITATIONS
There are several known limitations regarding Store’n’Go Professional use. These limitations are listed below.
• Logging out of the Privacy Zone in Windows 2000/XP
The Privacy Zone remains accessible after logging off of a Windows session. You must use V-Safe to log out of your Privacy Zone before logging off of the Windows session to ensure that your data remains secure.
• Single Store’n’Go Professional support
V-Safe currently supports only one Store’n’Go Professional at a time. Avoid using V-Safe when more than one Store’n’Go Professional is plugged in.
• Recognizing Store’n’Go Professional on laptops with a parallel floppy drive socket
V-Safe may not identify Store’n’Go Professional on laptops that have a parallel floppy drive socket. If this occurs, the following message is displayed: “No Store’n’Go Professional was found. The application will now terminate.” To correct this, navigate to Control Panel→System→Floppy Disk Controllers→Standard Floppy Disk Controller. Right-click to display the shortcut menu, and select Properties. In the General tab, disable device usage.
Alternatively, you can connect the floppy drive.
• Switching between the Public and Privacy Zones while documents are open
Some applications, such as MS WordPad, allow the user to switch between the Public and Privacy Zones while documents are open on Store’n’Go Professional. If a document from one of these applications is open on Store’n’Go Professional when switching between Zones, changes will be saved in the current Zone where you are working.
• Anti-virus applications
Anti-virus applications may prevent users from formatting Store’n’Go Professional. If you are unable to format Store’n’Go Professional, temporarily disabling the computer’s antivirus protection may enable the formatting operation to be executed.
• Removable Drive icon in the Windows title bar
On some systems, the Removable Drive icon that represents Store’n’Go Professional in the title bar of windows such as My Computer and Explore may display incorrectly.
• Formatting the Privacy Zone with V-Safe
After formatting your Privacy Zone with V-Safe, you must click OK in the Format Successful message that is displayed, and you must also eject Store’n’Go Professional using the Safe Eject feature afterwards, to ensure that V-Safe is copied to your Store’n’Go Professional.
• No text wrapping in the Password Hint field
The V-Safe Password Hint field does not wrap to an additional line, meaning only a limited number of text characters should be used when a hint is added.

6. FAQS
To see the latest FAQs, go to the Store’n’Go Professional website www.verbatim-europe.com. A few of these FAQs are listed below.
Q: How do I check which version of V-Safe I’m using?
A: The simplest way is to right click the V-Safe icon on your Store’n’Go Professional, and then click Properties and Version.
Q: How do I upgrade V-Safe to the newest version?
A:Download the zipped file from the web (www.verbatim-europe.com) to your desktop, unzip it and copy the .exe file to your Store’n’Go Professional. Launch it from your Store’n’Go Professional by double-clicking V-Safe. Do not use the shortcut you may have created on your desktop or the quick launch bar, since this will launch the old version.
Q: I would like to secure all the data on my Store’n’Go Professional. Why am I limited to a maximum Privacy Zone of 90%?
A:Your Store’n’Go Professional needs space to store V-Safe, as well as information about your Store’n’Go Professional. 10% of your Store’n’Go Professional is kept free to save space for upgrades and future applications without hindering V-Safe operation.
Q: How do I know if I'm working in my Privacy Zone or in the Public Zone?
A:If you're working in Windows 2000 or 98 SE, the V-Safe icon is displayed with a red lock inside it when you’re in your Privacy Zone. If you're working in Windows 98, 2000, Me or XP, the background color in your root file folder or in your Store’n’Go Professional icon is orange when you’re in your Privacy Zone. (This visual indication is not seen if you have selected a classic folder view on your computer.)
Q: How do I switch between the Public Zone and my Privacy Zone?
A:Launch V-Safe from your desktop, Store’n’Go Professional or the quick launch bar. If you see a prompt asking for your password, this means that you are currently in the Public Zone. To switch to your Privacy Zone, enter your password and click OK. If you see a pop-up window with a prompt asking you for logout confirmation from your Privacy Zone, this means that you're working in your Privacy Zone. To switch, click OK.
To remain logged in to your Privacy Zone, click Cancel.
Q: I accidentally deleted V-Safe from my Store’n’Go Professional. How can I access data in my Privacy Zone?
A:Download a new copy of V-Safe from the web (www.verbatim-europe.com) to your Store’n’Go Professional. The Privacy Zone that you designated previously will be accessible.
Q: Can I use more than one Store’n’Go Professional with V-Safe simultaneously?
A: No.
Q: Why can I use V-Safe only on certain computers?
A: You can only use V-Safe on computers for which you have administrative privileges.
Q: Is there an alternate way to format both the Public and Private Zones on my Store’n’Go Professional if V-Safe formatting fails?
A: Yes. Use the OS format utility. Then copy V-Safe and you’re ready to use it.
