Steganos Safe is a program that provides you with a solution for hiding your private files and folders from prying eyes. This type of Windows utilities prove to be of good use to people who share their computers with other users and wish to easily conceal their personal data.
The tool doesn't bring you a built-in help guide as you wouldn't really need it. It's very intuitive and guides you every step of the way when creating and managing your data safe. You can create various types of vaults. The program lets you turn your whole disks into vaults, make a Cloud safe (encrypt data in your Cloud account), encrypt data on an external storage device, etc.
In my testing, I created a safe for storing local documents. After I configured the vault settings according to my needs (set a vault size, access password, etc.), I was able to copy my personal data into the safe directly from Windows' File Explorer. To hide your vault from prying eyes, simply go to Steganos Safe's interface and select the correspondent option. It's that easy.
Other useful advantages include having access to a built-in file shredder and the ability to define a shortcut key for immediately opening your safe.
Hence, Steganos Safe proves to be a reliable solution for keeping your private data hidden on your Windows PC.
