PlexTools Professional software. With SecuViewer, you can use any
drive.)
3. In PlexTools Professional, choose Drive Settings and choose the
SecuRec tab. You see the SecuRec window.

the disc using Windows Explorer.

Important Facts about SecuRec

• SecuRec burning is applicable to data (ISO 9660) CDs only.
• SecuRec supports data CD-R discs written by disc-at-once (DAO)
techniques.
If you are distributing a SecuRec disc to others, please remember to
•
provide them the reader driver on another disc, or have them
download the reader driver from the Plextor web site at:
http://www.plextor.com/english/support/downloads/reader.html.
• Only data CD-R discs recorded in DAO mode can be password-
protected with SecuRec. DVD discs, audio (CD-DA) discs, or data
CDs written by track-at-once (TAO) or multi-session cannot be
protected.
• Discs protected with SecuRec using older versions of PlexTools
Professional may not be readable with the current version.
