How Do I Transfer from My Samsung Secure Folder to My Computer?
Assuming you would like to know how to transfer files from your Samsung Secure Folder to a computer, there are a few different ways that you can do this. One way is by using a USB cable. To do this, you will need to enable USB debugging on your phone.

Scroll down until you find the “USB Debugging” option and enable it. Now, connect your phone to your computer using a USB cable and open up My Computer (or This PC in Windows 10). You should see your phone listed as a drive.
Double-click on it and then navigate to the Secure Folder directory. From here, you can copy/paste or drag and drop any files that you want to transfer over to your computer. Another way to transfer files from your Samsung Secure Folder is by using Bluetooth.
To do this, first, make sure that Bluetooth is enabled on both your phone and your computer. Then, open up the Secure Folder app on your phone and tap on the three dots in the top right-hand corner of the screen. Tap on “Settings” and then select “Share via Bluetooth” from the list of options.

Next, select your computer from the list of paired devices and tap “Pair” when prompted; enter the PIN code that appears on your screen when prompted (this may be automatically entered for some computers).
Once paired, select which files you want to transfer over by tapping on them; once selected, tap on the share icon in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen (it looks like an arrow pointing up out of a box).
Your computer should now show up as an option; select it before tapping “Send” in order to begin transferring those files wirelessly!
