XP - Encrypting File System
I about killed myself trying to find any info about where and why this
was disabled. Found it - finally.
If the machine is a stand-alone machine, then you may have to add the
"EfsConfiguration" key below as stated by MS.
The "LastGoodEfsConfiguration" key seems to be part of the policies
mentioned below. It simply reflects the value set under the policies
key listed at the bottom. I deleted it several times w/o incident (it
just reappeared after reboot).
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\EFS]
"EfsConfiguration"=dword:00000000
"LastGoodEfsConfiguration"=dword:00000000
Change dword value to 1 to disable and 0 to enable.
If there are policies set for your computer (usually part of domain),
then you will need to enable/disable it here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\EFS]
"EfsConfiguration"=dword:00000000
Change dword value to 1 to disable and 0 to enable.
