Hello,

I have entered my pattern for secure folder and now it's asking me for the password, I've tried all passwords that I could possibly think of and none are working? Any advice?

I can't even screenshot what I mean because it goes straight to secure folder which I can't access.

Hi,
Try below

Open secure folder

Enter what you think is the unlock code or pattern

If your code is incorrect, tap Forgot PIN

Tap Reset

Enter the password for your Samsung account

Choose another unlock code or pattern and tap Continue

I have done all that, it says 'confirm secure folder password'. I don't remember ever setting up a password, just the pattern.

Same issue here. It is not my samsung password. When I first started Secure Folder it asked for my lock pattern which was successful but then it continues to ask for a password. No idea what it wants.

Hi all,

I just bought a new device and had the same issue.

To solve the problem I just pressed the Cancel button, to delete de restore process. The Secure Folder than opened as it was originally.

Than on my previous device, made a new backup to be restored on this one (just the Secure Folder) 

Hope it helps
