Setting Up My Device

To ensure there is ample power provided to the IronKey encrypted USB drive, insert it directly into a USB 2.0/3.0 port
on a notebook or desktop. Avoid connecting it to any peripheral devices that may feature a USB port, such as a
keyboard or USB-powered hub. Initial setup of the device must be done on a supported Windows or macOS based
operating system.

Device Access (Windows Environment)

Plug the IronKey encrypted USB drive into an available USB port on the notebook or desktop and wait for Windows to
detect it.
•
Windows 8.1/10/11 users will receive a
device driver notification. (Figure 3.1)
•
Once the new hardware detection is
complete, select the option IronKey.exe
inside of the Unlocker partition that can be
found in File Explorer. (Figure 3.2)
•
Please note that the partition letter will vary
based on the next free drive letter. The drive
letter may change depending on what
devices are connected. In the image to the
right, the drive letter is (E:).

Device Access (macOS Environment)

Insert the LP50 into an available USB port on your notebook or desktop and wait for the Mac operating system to
detect it. When it does, you will see the 'IRONKEY' volume appear on the desktop. (Figure 3.3)
•
Double-click the IronKey CD-ROM icon.
•
Then, double-click the IronKey.app
application icon found in the window
