Windows Forum / Windows XP / Setup and Deployment / November 2007encrypt offline files
I would like to encrypt offline files on a laptop that is part of a workgroup with no windows server, however when I set it to encrypt the files, the synch fails with an "access denied" error. My research so far tells me that I need some kind of encryption certificate for this to work. Is there any documentation you can point me to that details how to make his work? thanks  SignatureSteve Paul > I would like to encrypt offline files on a laptop that is part of a > workgroup with no windows server, however when I set it to encrypt [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > thanks I am assuming you mean the Microsoft EFS encryption found in XP Pro, if so then the following links may be of use. Used incorrectly EFS can render you files totally unaccessable.
