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).

  • Overheating issued with newly installed Windows 7 x 64-Satellite L350D - 10Z

    I just upgraded from vista to Windows 7 x 64 on my laptop Satellite L350D 10Z.
    Unfortunaly I have had overheating issues since.

    The computer began to stop himself after awhile of use, I downloaded speedfan and discovered that the cell was operating at 95 degrees Celsius while playing games, I chose in speedfan that fans would go to 100% at all times

    I also downloaded the latest BIOS update but I still read temperatures ranging from 75 to 85 degrees Celsius, the laptop has stopped to close itself to overheat, but it still don't feel safe.

    Is this a known issue?
    What can I do keep the temperature down?

    Hello

    The temperature seems to be too high and this is the reason why your laptop stops automatically.
    You said that what happens during the game
    During games all appliances are running with maximum performance and create a lot of heat dissipation

    Clock graphics Toshiba down driver the GPU if a threshold has been reached
    Other drivers don't support this overheating of procreation.
    Therefore, you should use the Toshiba graphics card driver!
    Other drivers may be used but only at your own risk!

    In addition, it must ensure that the unique cooling grids are dust-free and fresh air could circulate properly never use the laptop on the lap, couch or bet that it would close the vents and could lead to overheating!

  • Encryption in Windows 7

    Hello, in Windows 7 Professional, when you right-click on a file or folder and click on 'Properties' and under the (Advanced) attributes you have a possibility to encrypt your files.
    Windows says that encrypt your files will help to protect other people and keep safe. I tried this option and I noticed that the color of the name of the folder turns green. What I want to know is that how it contributes to the safety of my files. I mean, when I click on the file, it easily opens without asking for a password (not even that I put in the key certificate).

    After encryption, if I open the file in my computer, that anyone can open it. So, what's the point of it? Is it really safe?

    If you mean that if I create another account on my computer, then the person using the other account will not be able to access my files?

    Come help me with this:
    > If I encrypt a file, save it to my USB key and plug it into another computer, will it be possible to see on the other computer?
    > If not (from above) how can I open my file in the "another computer"?

    Really read up on encryption instead of simply asking questions.  ;-)

    If you encrypt your files, without the certificate backup or your password so that they could connect to your account on the computer, they are not getting into your encrypted files/folders.  If the machine is stolen, or if your password is changed by any means other than the normal method * you * would use to change your password (if it is changed by an administrator account on the computer and not not not using your account itself), then without the backup certificate/key - you do not get the data back.

    A drive/external USB media can use "Bitlocker to Go" that past essentially protects the encryption/decryption of the data on the key, so you can access the other computer.  Although there are BONES and other restrictions which.  (As you must have Windows 7 Enterprise or ultimate edition to access the same functionality - Professional didn't.)  http://sonyvegaspro97.blogspot.com/2012/04/using-Windows-7-BitLocker-to-go-secures.html

  • Approval of issue of Volume of Windows 7

    I have all the 25 computers purchased with their own versions of OEM Windows 7 Pro.  Because of my corporate security environment, I need a master image and have this image scanned for security vulnerabilities.  Once the image is scanned and blessed I want to clone for 24 other computers.  Since I have 25 legal copies of Windows 7 can I use this single image on other computers, also a long time that I do not exceed the limit of a legal copy of Windows?  The alternative would be to create a new image with every copy of Windows and individually scanned.  Is it legal and if not, what are my alternatives?  Thank you.

  • 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.

  • ISAM speed application issues since update to windows machines 7 (the opportunistic locking and SMB)

    I have a client system that runs an ISAM application, which worked OK on the SBS 2011 machine and windows XP SP3 machines

    The client has since upgraded its workstation to windows 7 x 64 workstations and ISAM application provider recommends that disable us opportunistic locking and also SMB v2 (e.g. force the workstation to communicate via SMB v1)

    We followed the steps described in the various sections of Microsoft KB (2696547 & 296264), and as a result still having very slow network performance.

    Then we found another reference external from the Microsoft site on disabling SMB digital signing, due to the use of SMB v1, and how that can sort out the problem with the speed of network problems.

    The customer had it since and it has improved performance, but it's still not at the same speed, as it was on Windows XP clients.

    is there a way to force windows 7 and SBS 2011 to use SMB 1 protocol and completely disable SMB 2, or we should create a new Member Server to use this ISAM application for sharing files.

    the application is integrated in the line of business customers to change with a huge expense, but the seller request said that intend it to upgrade applications to use some form of plan of database in the future, but it is at least 12 to 18 months away.

    Hello Paul,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you have issues with Windows 7 and SBS 2011 uses SMB 1 protocols and completely disable SMB 2. So I would advice to follow the link below to post your query in the TechNet forums, because they have more expertise on this issue.

    No, it won't. However, the more important question is: can the thief the disc? For an authoritative answer, you must perform this simple test:

  • Issue of license upgrade: Windows XP Home - &#62; Win7 Pro?

    Thank you

    Microsoft licenses allow an install WinXP Home to upgrade to Win7 Pro through the 'Upgrade' of Win7 Pro edition?

    Thank you

    Yes, Windows XP Home Edition can be an eligible license, but you will need to do a custom installation, there is no direct upgrade path from it.

    The upgrade to Windows XP?


    Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.


    Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).




    More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

    1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

    2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

    3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

    4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

    5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

    If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.
