### Encrypt with PassWord

Security is always the important issue, no matter for personal privacy and business secrets. In XMind Pro, we can lock our XMind file with a password. It will bring the information a high-level security.

To Set a password:

1. Open or draw a map.
2. Choose "File - Encrypt with Password" on the menu.
3. Type your password twice on the coming dialog, and click "OK" button.

To Reset/Remove the Password:

1. Open a map which has the password by inputing the password
2. Choose "File - Encrypt with Password" on the menu.
3. Input the Old Password. And there are two options now:
   - Remove the Old Password: Leave the "New Password" field blank, and click "OK"
   - Reset the Password: Input the new password twice in two fields

Note: Please keep your password carefully. If you forget the password, that file will never be opened.
