New Features and Functionality v10.7
● Encryption Personal is now supported with Windows 10 v2004 (May 2020 Update/20H1).
● Encryption Personal now can locate and escrow encryption keys to mapped network drives.
● The Dell DiagnosticInfo utility logging is improved.

● A new RAID controller driver is added to the Dell Encryption Recovery WinPE environment. This enables recovery of disks in
newer platforms configured in RAID ON mode.

drive. This will appear as a re-sweep of encryption of the disk, which may lead to a temporary increase in system resource
use.

user intends to activate Encryption at a later date and selects this option, delete the following registry value:
HKEY_Current_User\Software\Credant\CMGShield\
REG_SZ (string) - PasswordPromptKey
Value = HidePasswordPrompt

before enabling the PBA:
Note: Protection must be enabled to add users.

state in the decryption process. This prompt can be disabled by configuring the following registry value.
HKLM\Software\Dell\Dell Data Protection
"ShowDecryptAgentRebootPrompt"=DWORD
Default = enabled
1 = enabled (displays prompt)
