Reference Guide
Mac v2.6
• If the administrator removes a file extension from the Basic File Protection Configuration policy field, the Properties > Dell Data
Guardian tab and file overlay icon may be removed during the one-time sweep before the file has finished decrypting. Users may need
to wait several minutes for the file to fully decrypt. If any encrypted files with that extension are missed during the one-time sweep, for
example, if the file is open or was stored on a file server or other location, the administrator can use the Recovery Tool to decrypt.
