Hi everyone,  
I’m using Samsung Galaxy M12 (SM-M127G) with One UI Core 5.1 (Android 13). Earlier, I had Secure Folder on this device, but after the latest update, the option is completely gone. I can’t find it on Galaxy Store, and even APK install fails with “App not installed.”

Secure Folder was very important for privacy and data protection. 
Please help or let me know if anyone found a working solution.

Details: 
• Knox Version: 3.9 
• Knox API: 36 
• Android Patch: October 2024 
• One UI Core: 5.1

I dont think it ever had the secure folder feature. M12 runs on oneui core, which is a lighter version of the full oneui. And samsung deliberately removes them on their budget segment phones. This is just my speculation. If it really did have secure folder, then just try searching it in settings thru the search bar directly.

Bruh secure folder is a knox-based feature, which oneui core lacks. Btw I also looked it up on yt and most of them have either sideloaded cometin (works the same as secure folder but isnt secure folder), or have faked it using a different samsung model to mislead users into thinking its a m12 lol
