How to Change the SecretFolder Password

When you run SecretFolder, a password entry window appears on the screen as the program starts for user authentication. This window contains a text field where you can enter your password, and you must enter the password you are currently using exactly. After entering the password, click the OK button to launch SecretFolder normally and access your protected files.



 


To change the password while SecretFolder is running, first find the Preferences button in the program window. Clicking this Preferences button opens the settings menu, where you can adjust various SecretFolder options.



When the Settings menu opens, find and click the "Change Password" button among the available options. This button is usually located under the security-related settings and may be labeled "Change Password" Clicking the Change Password button opens a new window where you can proceed with changing your password.



When the password settings window opens, you will see an input field where you can enter a new password. Carefully enter the new password you want to use here. For security, the password should be sufficiently long and complex, and you may need to enter the same password again for confirmation. Once all entries are complete, click the OK button to finish changing the password. After that, you will be able to access SecretFolder using the newly set password.

How to Ensure Recorded Videos Can Be Recovered Even If the App Is Force-Closed During Recording

When recording video with oCam, selecting the MKV container from the Codec menu allows the video file to be saved more safely even in unexpected situations. The MKV container offers excellent file stability, so even if the program closes during recording due to various issues, the file will not be corrupted and can still be played normally.

 

For example, even if oCam is force-closed during recording, or if a game suddenly crashes while recording gameplay, the video file saved in the MKV container can still be played normally. This is possible because the MKV format is designed to store data in a highly stable file structure.


On the other hand, if you use the MP4 container, the file may become corrupted and impossible to recover in the same kind of abnormal shutdown situation. For stable recording, using the MKV container is recommended.


However, there are a few things to keep in mind when playing MKV files. If you play an MKV file in Windows Media Player, the seek function, such as jumping to a specific point in the video, may not work smoothly. Playback itself works without a problem, but for better seeking convenience, it is recommended to use an external video player such as PotPlayer. PotPlayer plays MKV files reliably and also supports smooth seeking.


Also, MKV files are not supported by Naver's video upload feature. Since the Naver platform does not allow MKV uploads, you will need to use a platform such as YouTube if you want to share videos on the web. YouTube supports MKV uploads without issues and provides an environment optimized for sharing and playback.


Therefore, if you want stable recording with oCam, the most effective method is to select the MKV container from the Codec menu, use an external player such as PotPlayer for playback, and use YouTube for web sharing.
