• Issues of encryption in Windows 7?

  I need to encrypt a folder on my laptop and a drive connected via USB (FAT32). If I encrypt the folder but transfer it to a USB stick, do I have the laptop to open the folder or Windows 7 he deciphers when it transfers?

  If I encrypt a USB FAT32 disc, can I only open and read and modify the files in the same installation of Windows 7 or is it possible to any installation of Windows 7? Can it be read by other operating systems if I get a password?

  FAT32 volumes don't support encryption. You must use NTFS to use the EFS file system.

  Unless you want to use a file encrypted as a file to archive encrypted (rar, zip, etc).

• Encryption on Windows Ultimate

  Moved to Windows XP Security & Privacy for Windows 7 security & privacy>

  How to validate that my computer is now fully encrypted after you have downloaded the Windows Ultimate software that is supposed to contain encryption?

  Steve

  Ok.  Do you simply 'download' the DVD of Windows 7 Ultimate, or have you actually installed Windows 7 Ultimate?  Even if you have it installed, as I wrote above, nothing is encrypted until you take action to make it happen.  Your system is not "entirely encrypted" (all what you mean by that) simply by installing Windows 7 Ultimate.  You must take concrete steps to encrypt your data.

  Is that what you want to do?

  Are you referring to BitLocker, which encrypts the entire drive, or to the Encrypting File System (EFS), which allows you to encrypt files and folders individual?  In general, BitLocker is used in enterprise environments (this is why it is only available in Ultimate and Enterprise versions).

  And yet once again, I urge you NOT to encrypt anything until you fully understand what you are doing.  BitLocker and EFS are designed with no "back door" or other means of data recovery, if you lose or forget the encryption key.  Because there is no way to recover data that has been encrypted with a corrupted certificate or missing, it is critical that you back up the certificates and store them in a secure location. You can also specify a recovery agent. This agent can restore the data. The recovery agent certificate serves a different purpose than the certificate of the user.

• Problems with encrypted Prestige 2 TB drive and Windows 8.1

  So I have an Iomega 2 TB external hard drive of Prestige that has been and is still working very well. I recently updated my computer to Windows 8.1 and now when I connect my hard drive to my computer, the Iomega encryption software does not recognize the drive is connected, so do not let me unlock it. I tried to connect to another computer running Windows XP and the software recognized and unlocked it very well, but as the reader has a GPT partition style, I guess that's why this computer would not read the drive, once it has been unlocked. So basically my question is is there a way for me to access my disk encrypted on Windows 8.1 or if not there at - it other software I can use to unlock it?

  Oh also, the reader communicates with my computer as when I plug it into the virtual CD with the Iomega utility encryption Setup appears, it's just the actual program does not see the drive.

  Good then I discovered why my hard drive did not work properly. After contacting the support of microsoft, it turns out that the Windows update 8.1 some chipset drivers had not updated and therefore to prevent playback of my disc. in any case, just the display in the case where a person has a similar problem.

• Cannot access Windows XP stuck in reboot Mode without failure and encrypted HD loop.

  I am currently stuck in Safe Mode reboot loop. This happened after I opted to enter Safe Mode via MSconfig (box checked/SafeBoot in BOOT. INI tab). I am unable to secure through all normal boot, command, etc.

  I have already installed Recovery Console but I try to use it, I get the error "UNMPOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME" on blue screen.

  I don't have a Windows XP CD, so last night I started with Knoppix successfully but can not access the Boot.ini file. I think it's because the encryption (Encryption Plus Hard Disk of GuardianEdge) provided with the laptop software. Before this has is spent, during the boot process, I get the login screen of encryption before Windows XP starts. Without this step, I can't access all the files.

  My question is this: is it possible to achieve connection encryption while that started using Knoppix?

  I'm completely locked out of my laptop. I appreciate any help you can offer.

  Thank you

• Windows 8 corrupted installation TrueCrypt encrypted another disk with Windows XP

  Hello, I need help. I just installed new Windows 8 on an empty partition of the secondary drive.

  The first drive I got the previous installation of Windows (XP). Unfortunately, I forgot, this hard drive is encrypted TrueCrypt. Windows 8 now works OK, but the disc with Windows XP seems to be empty. The other partition of the disk with Windows 8 works fine.

  I have the TrueCrypt rescue disk and he managed to restore the TrueCrypt Boot, but when I try to start, he writes, that no bootable partition was found. It allows us to decipher the drive and when I start it, it seems to work, but it is too slow and I need to know if this can help. Try to restore a Volume of TrueCrypt header in Windows 8 fails ("way of wrong installation, wrong password or not a TrueCrypt Volume"). Pourrait installing Windows 8 format the drive?

  (Sorry for my bad English)

  Later: I tried data recovery, and it shows some files and folders http://postimg.org/image/9xt33kmw5/

  Hi Daniel,.

  The drive that contains Windows XP displays empty because the file format of Windows XP is FAT (File allocation table) that is not supported by Windows 8. Windows 8 uses NTFS (New Technology File System). I would say to contact TrueCrypt support to check why the description of disk takes a long time. In Windows 8 If you want to encrypt or decrypt the data, you can use bit-locker installation. I suggest you to see the following links for more information on encryption of bit-locker.

• The files are currently encryption automatically.

  A lot of word documents and my son is creating programs c ++ are automatically encrypted.  When the document is opened, it is said user has access privileges.  When I try to uncheck the encryption properties, I get an access denied message.  I'm doing this as an administrator.

  Where Devil am I going to stop this?

  Where can I fix the access denied message?

  How to change permanently the user permissions for all users to have all permissions for the created documents?

  These files are under encryption by the Encrypting File System (EFS).  This seems to indicate that you have a XP Pro and not XP Home.  When it comes to the EFS, administrators don't have little or no power to decrypt these files.  Even if you are an administrator, you will not be able to access these files.

  With impatience...  You can access the encrypted files is to create a "EFS Recovery Agent.  You can then use the recovery agent to access any encrypted file after the agent has been installed.  You will find that only the encrypted files after the recovery agent is in place can be consulted.  Files created before then will not be available.

  You can also disable EFS.  You can do this with group policy in a domain environment, but at home, a registry value can be changed.  Use with caution.  If you do not understand what follows or how to change the registry, not to do so.

  < quote="">
  «Note: Group Policy sets a registry key which is verified by the EFS during user operations.» The key is:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\EFS\EfsConfiguration
  In the case of local computers that are not members of a domain, local politics is not available for the deactivation of EFS.
  However, a different registry key can be set to disable EFS. If the key is set to a DWORD value of 0x01, EFS will be disabled.
  Registry key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\EFS\EfsConfiguration"

  If it's any consolation, EFS is known as the 'Recycle Bin delay' because if a user does not save the certificate (as it is most are not), all crashing Windows requiring a re-installation of Windows will permanently remove access to these files to everyone.

  I hope this helps.
