401 Chapter 12: Managing Storage and File Systems
3. Click Encrypt Contents To Secure Data and click OK twice. If you chose a
file in Step 1, you are warned that you have chosen to encrypt a file without
encrypting the folder and as a result the file could become decrypted when it
is modified. You are given a choice of encrypting both the file and the folder
(recommended) or encrypting only the file. Make your choice and click OK.
NOTE If you try to encrypt a folder, you get a Warning that asks if you want to apply the changes
(encrypting) to the folder only, or apply it to subfolders and files as well.
If you sign off the computer and someone else signs on, or if someone tries to access
the file over the network, they will find the file unreadable. Also, if you look at the file
in the Windows Explorer, it will, by default, have a colored entry alerting you to the fact
that it is encrypted.
NOTE You cannot both encrypt and compress a file or folder. If you select one of these attributes,
you cannot select the other.
