Set Mount Policy

Overview

BitCurator includes a convenience application indicator (small disk icon in the top right of the menu bar) that may be used to quickly set the current mount policy for USB Devices.

set mount policy

When the disk icon is red, the mount policy is set writeable. USB storage devices plugged into the system when this state is set can be read from, and written to.

When the disk icon is green, the mount policy is set read-only. USB storage devices plugged into the system when this state is set cannot be written to.

Important notes: Changing the mount policy state does not change the mount policy for devices currently plugged into your machine.
