Installation
You can install Encryption Personal using the master installer (recommended), or by extracting the child installers from the
master installer. Either way, Encryption Personal can be installed by user interface, command line or scripts, and using any push
technology available to your organization.
Users should see the following help files for application assistance:
NOTE: If Policy-Based Encryption is installed before the Encryption Management Agent, computer crash may occur. This
issue is caused by failure to load the encryption Sleep driver that manages the PBA environment. As a workaround, use the
master installer or ensure that Policy-Based Encryption is installed after the Encryption Management Agent.
