File Share Encryption

Hello,

I have a problem, propobly a bug with Netshare option "Force the encryption of files associated with the following applications:"

This is what my policy settings look like:

(selected)Force the encryption of files associated with the following applications:

(selected)Others: notepad.exe;notepad++.exe

Policy is correctly applied to PGP Desktop client. However when I save files in notepad, or notepad++, files are not encrypted. If I delete one of those two application processes and leave just one - say notepad++.exe, everything works fine and files saved in Notepad++ are saved in encrypted form.

Davor

have yu Updated policy and rebooted computer?

Are you sure this setting was enabled in the correct policy for this user?

what server and client versions?

Davor,

This works for me.

Just check (like Julian mentioned) the PGPprefs.xml in your Users AppData folder for the string:

<string>notepad.exe;notepad++.exe</string>

to make sure policy is applied.

But there is someting else you should concider:

When putting notepad++.exe in the white list, it does encrypt all files that it writes, including his own configuration files in your users appdata folder.

Cheers,

Martin

I just updated policy, but did not reboot, works after reboot.
