About Vault Flasher

Vault Flasher downloads the official Vault Node image, verifies its SHA-256 against the release's published digest, and writes it to a removable USB drive with a single click — with a read-back verification pass and optional WiFi presetting. It only ever offers removable USB drives (never an internal or system disk) and re-validates the target inside its elevated writer.

What's new in 1.0.0

Vault Manager v1.0.0

Vault Manager 1.0 is the first full release. It sets up, claims and manages your own Vault node, on a spare PC, a mini PC or a Synology NAS, and it lets you share what that node stores with your apps and your family.

Set up a Synology NAS as a node

A new guided Set up a server or NAS → Synology flow.

  • Set it up for me: enter your NAS address and DSM login, and Vault Manager does every DSM step itself. It creates the folder, uploads and checks the node image, creates and starts the Container Manager project, and reads the claim code. Your DSM password is used for that one setup and never stored. Two-factor sign-in is supported.
  • I'll do it myself: a click-by-click guide for DSM 7.2 and 7.4, with every field and value spelled out. If your NAS has no docker shared folder, the guide covers that too.
  • The offered node image always follows the current release, and it's checked against its published SHA-256 before use.

Tested from a clean DSM 7.2 and 7.4.1 install, with and without an existing docker share, end to end：node running, claimed and serving.

Manage your node from anywhere

  • Manage a node from off your home network. Vault Manager falls back to your node's secure tunnel when it can't reach it directly.
  • Your owner credentials are sealed at rest in the Windows keychain (AES-256-GCM), including backups.
  • The node list shows friendly app names, clear "recovering" states while a node restarts, and no more endless "checking…".
  • Storage：mirror a data disk onto a spare twin, see mirror status and last-checked times, and use one clear reconfigure button.
  • New Shutdown control, alongside Reboot.

Spaces, invites and recovery

  • Invite someone to a space as an Editor or a Viewer.
  • Invite one of your apps, such as VaultDocs or VaultDrive, into a space your node stores.
  • Invite links come with a QR code that is drawn locally and sized to scan reliably on a phone, even for long invites.
  • Self-service space recovery: recover a space whose key was lost, straight from Vault Manager.
  • Rebuild in VaultDrive: hand a damaged space off for a fast rebuild.
  • Removing an app from a node, or revoking a device, can require a second owner device to confirm.

Add-ons

Vault Manager can install signed add-ons, which run in a sandboxed frame with only the access they declare. The first is Leaderboard Admin, for moderating game leaderboards hosted on your node.

Vault Flasher version history

0.7.8

Vault Manager v0.7.8

You can now invite one of your apps into a space your node stores. Until now, if a space lived on
your node — the storage your website fills, for example — there was no way to let VaultDocs or
VaultDrive open its files：your desktop apps had only *joined* that space, so they held no key to
share it, and the only link Vault Manager could make was a *management* invite, which those apps
correctly refuse. This release adds the missing generator.

Invite an app to a space on this node

A new section, "Invite an app to a space on this node", appears once you're managing a node.

• Pick one of the spaces your node stores, and press Create invite link.
• You get a copyable link and a QR code. Open Accept an invite / connect a space in the app you
want to let in — VaultDocs or VaultDrive — and paste it (or scan the QR).
• Anyone who opens the link joins the space immediately — the one-time link *is* your approval, so
there is nothing extra to click here.

It sits alongside the two links Vault Manager already makes, and each now says plainly what it is for
so they can't be confused:

  • Give another app access hands a *website* management of the node.
  • Add a device to this node connects a *phone* that just uses the node.
  • Invite an app to a space — this one — hands an app the *files* in one space.

The link itself is minted by your node and handed to you unchanged：it is the same standard space …
