Description

@Garima-149

While exploring the documentation, I noticed that the optional password creation step is mentioned but not clearly explained for first-time users.

It is currently unclear:

  • where exactly in the UI the password needs to be set
  • at which stage of the setup process this option appears
  • how enabling/disabling the password affects backup security

This may cause confusion, especially for beginners who are not familiar with Borg/Vorta concepts.

Proposed Improvements:

  • Add clear step-by-step instructions for setting up the optional password
  • Include screenshots highlighting the relevant UI sections
  • Briefly explain the purpose and importance of setting a password

This would improve usability and help users make informed decisions about securing their backups.

I would like to work on this issue and submit a pull request.
