Secure folder

[Jayman1973]

I'm not sure if this has already been asked. Is there such a way to stop this pop up from coming on everytime the phone is restarted?  I don't have any apps in my secure folder just the odd picture or two.  In order to bypass it, you have to unlock the secure folder to get to the home screen and then relock the folder in the home screen. This is so annoying having to do these steps.

The same thing always happens to me too, and I have never used a secure folder

Never happens to me when Secure Folder is NOT installed. 

Remove any apps that may be in Secure Folder & Uninstall it. Problem Solved 😉

Should be Settings > Notifications scroll down Secure Folder & Toggle OFF.

It happens when you have set password for the secure folder

Settings > security privacy > secure folder > lock type ( it should have no password, pattern,pin nothing) else on every reboot it asks, as we dont use secure folder, when can clear data of secure folder and it should be ok or remove notifications

If you just uninstall the Secure Folder, then you won't have a password for it, to worry about anyway.

I guess that is a system app you cant uninstall it without root

Not exactly. 

The Secure Folder does not "exist" until you enable it, and the inverse is true.

I have had the Secure Folder enabled on this device, but presently it is not.

If I want to use it again, I have to effectively create it as new.

 

At the moment, the Secure Folder does not exist on my device, so there's no reminder when I use Smart Switch to Back it up & no request for a password on Boot.

Yes disable is different thing ,i was talking about /system/apps partition.

Well i have enabled buy not set password so no issue

It's actually more than just "disabled", which is the point of my screen shots. 

The Secure Folder does not EXIST on my device at the moment. It is neither disabled or present in any way.
