WARNING: 

To prevent encryption, remove the drive before clicking 

Continue

. Click 

Continue

 to 

either encrypt the drive or to close the window after removing the device.

Password Encrypting Files

Your administrator can enable the Security client to create a Password Encrypted Files folder on any 
removable device that connects to your computer. This folder is named by your administrator; 
therefore, it might be named Password Encrypted Files or some other name.

When you add files to this folder, they are encrypted with a password that you supply. You can then 
access the files from any device that is not running the Security client. To decrypt the files, you need 
the ZENworks File Decryption utility and the encryption password. You must get the utility from 
your administrator.

For example, assume that you are working on encrypted files at work. You want to take the files 
home to work on them, but your home computer does not have the Security client installed. You 
copy the files to the Password Encrypted Files folder on your USB thumb drive, take the files home, 
then access them using the ZENworks File Decryption utility you got from your administrator.

To use the Password Encrypted Files folder:

1

Move or save a file to the folder.

2

At the password prompt, enter a password and confirmation password.

3

Enter a hint for the password.

The Security client remembers the password and applies it to any new files that you add to the folder 
until you reboot your computer. Any time your computer reboots, the first time you add a file to the 
folder you are again prompted to supply a password.

Changing the Password to Files in the Shared Files Folder

You can use the Encryption control to change passwords for files added to the Password Encrypted 
Files folder. This does not change any existing passwords, just the password for future files. 

To change the password:

1

Plug the storage device into the appropriate port on your computer.

2

Right-click the 

Endpoint Security Client

 icon in the taskbar.

3

Select 

Encryption

 from the menu. 

4

Click 

Clear Password
