| Select to register some fingers from both hands |
When you first plug this USB drive into your computer, a window with images of two hands will appear.
You can choose to register several fingers from both of your hands. For example, to register the middle finger of your right hand, click on the middle finger image of the right hand. Then click Next.
Next, place your middle finger on the arrow section of the USB and draw a straight line in the direction the arrow points downwards. You need to perform this action at least three times for the program to memorize your fingerprint. Once the program indicates OK, the registration is successful. Click Finish to complete the process.
Additionally, to be more secure, the program will ask you to set a password for protection. The next time you plug the USB Flashdrive

| If not authenticated by a password or fingerprint, the contents of your USB Flashdrive will be completely “invisible” to everyone |
into the computer, you will be prompted to enter your password or scan your fingerprint. You can choose either method to unlock your drive. If not authenticated by a password or fingerprint, the contents of your USB Flashdrive will be completely “invisible” to everyone.
After logging in, the control window of the FP1 appears as follows:
– IE AutoLogin: This utility will help you automatically fill in your username and password on websites that require login. You no longer need to remember each password for different websites, as the program will save it for you. First, use Internet Explorer to open the webpage where you need to remember the password (for example, http://mail.yahoo.com), fill in your Yahoo ID and Password. Then, call the program window from the system tray, select IE AutoLogin > Save ID and Password. The next time you visit this page, the program will autofill your ID and password for you, which is very convenient.
– My Favorites: You can synchronize your computer’s Favorites with the Flashdrive’s Favorites, allowing you to always carry your favorite addresses with you.
– FlashMail: A simple POP3 mail checking utility that helps you check your email anytime, anywhere. You can set it up to manage emails from multiple inboxes, and importantly, all downloaded emails will be saved on your Flashdrive instead of your computer’s hard drive. This is very useful, as it protects your emails from the prying eyes of shared computer users.
– User Settings: This section allows you to change your password or fingerprint protection settings.
– Explorer it: Opens a Windows Explorer window to “explore” the contents of your Flashdrive.
