    Encrypted Disk

    Hi,

    Thanks for help and response, disk encryption :)

    I think was bitlocker, but its strange because i I thought
    that encrypt all the disc as a whole, and if took the disk out, ok should be encrypted.

    But i was logged in windows and copied the files , the same encryptiton persists in files too?

    Or will be impossibel without the public key and the certainty of the software used?

    Any forum that you suggest to ask some more help?

    Regards

    What good would encryption be if all you had to do to defeat it was copy the files? You copied files that were encrypted, and there is no way to decrypt them without the key.
