Just got an update from Kingston:
We just wanted to let you know of an update on the DataTraveler Locker+ G2. Due to compatibility inconsistencies between PC and Mac, Kingston is removing the password manager feature from the just released DataTraveler Locker+ G2 consumer secure USB Flash drive. The hardware-encrypted drive itself works just fine between PC and Mac systems. We want to make sure the user experience remains smooth and flawless for our customers so they can enjoy the drive, therefore, the password manager option will be removed.
