Its been several years since the horrible update that now notifies the user that Secure Folder is locked when booting up. Why do they not remove it after so many dislike it!

    I asked a support rep. He told me the solution was to delete everything and stop using the secure folder. I said “but I have some secure content”. He said “I’m so sorry…” and ended the support chat.

    Bizarre experience but now I totally understand why he did that. This is such a weird hill for Samsung to die on. They literally refined Android Desktop into DeX before they’d consider hiding an always-on notification which defeats the whole purpose of the product.

      It’s honestly stupid that you even wasted your time contacting them over that. You can’t expect some Indian to actually know how to remove that. It doesn’t defeat the purpose of anything, it’s a secure folder not a hidden folder.

    Yeah it’s really silly… you can only try and uninstall or disable as many unused secure folder apps as possible…

    I’m on a tab s7 plus and it doesn’t give me the notification. Haven’t tried on my tab s9u though.
