# Use several vaults

Create more vaults, each with its own Vault Pass, switch between them, rename them, and see how many your plan allows per workspace.

You can keep several vaults, for example one for work and one for family papers. Each vault has its own Vault Pass and is locked and unlocked on its own.

## How many vaults you can have

The number of vaults depends on the plan, and counts per workspace, not per account:

| Plan | Vaults per workspace |
| --- | --- |
| Essentials | 3 |
| Professional | 5 |
| Advanced | 10 |
| 10 TB Lifetime | 50 |

In a workspace, the owner's plan sets the number. The vault switcher shows how many you have left, next to **New vault**: for example **2 vaults remaining**.

## Create another vault

Your first vault is created from the Vault page: see [Create your Vault](https://drime.cloud/support/vault/create-your-vault). For the next ones:

1. In the left rail, click **Vault**, then click the vault title at the top of the sidebar.

   The list of your vaults opens, under **Vaults**.

2. Click **New vault**.

3. In **Vault name**, give the vault a name, up to 60 characters, then pick a **Colour** to tell it apart.

4. In **Vault pass**, choose the Vault Pass of this vault and type it twice.

   **This vault gets its own pass. We don't know or store it anywhere on our servers, and it cannot be recovered.**

5. Click **Create vault**.

   The new vault opens, already unlocked.

> **Important**
>
> Nobody can recover a forgotten Vault Pass, not even Drime. Each vault has its own: keep them in a password manager.

## Switch between vaults

Click the vault title, then click a vault in the list. Each one shows whether it is **Unlocked** or **Locked**.

![The Vault switcher open with two demo vaults, one unlocked and one locked, Lock all vaults and New vault with the vaults remaining](https://drime.cloud/media/01M5DTV4XME1J2H8139QF7832R/503cacbdb98e-web-vault-switcher.png)

A locked vault asks for its own Vault Pass: unlocking one vault does not unlock the others.

To lock the vault you are in, click **Lock**. With more than one vault, **Lock all vaults** locks them all at once. See [Unlock and lock your Vault](https://drime.cloud/support/vault/unlock-and-lock).

## Rename a vault or change its colour

1. Click the vault title, then the palette next to its name.

   Its tooltip reads **Vault settings**.

2. Change the **Name** or the **Colour**, then click **Save**.

   **Name and colour only. Your pass is not affected.**

The gear button of the Vault toolbar, also named **Vault settings**, opens the Vault settings of your account instead: auto-lock and Vault security.

## If it doesn't work

| What you see | What to do |
| --- | --- |
| **You have reached the number of vaults your plan allows.** | You have used all the vaults of your plan in this workspace. Upgrade your plan, or keep using your existing vaults. See [Upgrade or change your plan](https://drime.cloud/support/plans-and-billing/upgrade-or-change-plan). |
| **0 vaults remaining** next to **New vault** | Same limit: the switcher shows it before you try. |
| **Create vault** stays greyed out | Give the vault a name, choose a strong enough Vault Pass and type it the same way twice. |
| **Use a strong pass: a vault cannot be recovered.** | Choose a longer Vault Pass, mixing words, numbers and symbols. |
| **Passwords do not match** | Type the same Vault Pass in both fields. |
| **Could not create the vault. Please try again.** | Check your connection, then try again. |
