Thank you for contacting us! The Private "Safe" or "Vault" (in English) is technically part of the "Cross-Account Sharing" feature. What the Vaults are used for is to create containers of data that can be shared between different mSecure accounts. For example, you may have family members you would like to share data with, but you don't want then to sign in to your account so that they have access to all your data, which is the only way sharing could be accomplished in previous versions of mSecure. In mSecure 6, you can connect those two accounts and use Vaults to share only the data you would like to share with your family. After connecting all accounts, you could create Vaults like "Streaming Services," "Home Codes," and "Payment Information" and then add each member that should have access to that data to each vault. After that, when you add a record to each Vault, all members added to the Vault would have access to the data stored in it.

If you have a Premium subscription, you can add Vaults to your account and simply used it for organizational purposes, but that's not encouraged. It's simpler to use tags instead. You can add any number of tags to your records, then search for data you need with those tags. When not sharing data between different accounts, tags fulfill all the same purposes of Vaults, but you don't have to set them up in the Sharing Center, and they are far more flexible.

Were you asking about Vaults with the intention of sharing data between different accounts?

I'm happy to help! In order to share information using Vaults, all people involved must have mSecure accounts with Premium subscriptions. Also, for your PC, you can't work with multiple databases like in the older mSecure 3 app. You can have multiple installations on different Windows Profiles, but you can't run more than one mSecure account on the same Profile unless you deleted your database and signed in to a different account every time you needed access to one particular account.

Does the family member you are referring to have a device on which they can install mSecure?

They should have no problems running mSecure on their computer. The problem here is, mSecure does require a Premium subscription in order to share data on an ongoing basis. So if you were to have them set up an account now, they would have Premium access for free for one month. In that time, you could share as much data with them as you would like. However, after the 30 day period, the ability to share new data would stop. In a sense, the new account that was created will be sort of frozen. The person would be able to add new data to the app for themselves, but data you shared with them would not syncing over.

Do you know if the other person would be interested in having a Premium subscription to mSecure?

Unfortunately, there is no way to load mSecure on a USB stick. This is a difficult situation, because any options I could give are inevitably going to require the knowledge of a different password in order to keep the data you want to give to the other member secure. For example, you could get an encrypted USB thumb drive and store CSV exports of your data on the drive along with all the details on how to make use of it. The problem is, the other person would need to know the password in order to get at the data. There's really no way around this unless both parties have an app like mSecure in which data can be shared between accounts.

No problem at all! I'm always happy to help. Please let me know if you need further assistance.
