Technical Advisories v8.9
All Products
● On computers running both the Windows 10 Fall Update and Kaspersky Anti-Virus, installation is blocked. [CSF-1223]
Encryption
● The Setup Wizard does not automatically launch on computers running Kaspersky Antivirus. [DDPC-1001]
● Added 04/2016 - A computer running Windows 7 hibernates although the client is unable to encrypt the hibernation data and
the Prevent Unsecured Hibernation policy is enabled. [DDPC-1220]
● A fully-qualified network path must be used instead of browsing to select a mapped network drive to back up encryption
keys with the Setup Wizard. [DDPC-1247]
● Added 8/2017 - When the user inserts EMS-encrypted media and clicks Access Encrypted Files on a Windows 10
computer without the Encryption client installed, the options Install EMS Service and Run EMS Explorer are not
available. [DDPC-1449]
● On HCA-encrypted computers running the Windows 10 Fall Update, HCA decryption does not start after the HCA encryption
policy is changed to Off. [DDPC-1452]
● If the backup key location has changed or is no longer available, the backup fails with no obvious user notification other than
a red exclamation point (!) that displays above the key backup button in the local console. To work around this issue, click
the key backup button and enter a new backup location. [DDPC-1472]
● On some USB drives, External Media Shield leaves some files unencrypted and renamed with "CEF????<original
filename>ERR." This occurs only occasionally, with USB drives or drivers that repeatedly disconnect and reconnect the
drives. To work around this issue, rename the files with their original filenames, then remove and reconnect the drive. If the
EMS Scan External Media policy is On, the resulting encryption sweep will process the files. [DDPC-1532]
● If the HCA algorithm is changed after encryption, HCA encryption does not start. [DDPC-1533]
Advanced Authentication
● The fingerprint reader on the Latitude 7510 running Windows 10 loses functionality after upgrade to Windows 10 Fall Update.
To work around this issue, perform two restarts and the fingerprint reader will function again. [CSF-1210]
● Occasionally on computers running the Windows 10 Fall Update, fingerprints may need to be re-enrolled. [CSF-1225]
● The Crypto Erase Password policy does not erase the SED but, instead, deletes the authentication tokens for all users and
locks the SED. Afterward, only an administrator can forcibly unlock the device. [DDPLP-370, 26862]
Preboot Authentication
● After recovering PBA access through recovery questions, the password change page displays a message that, if no action is
taken, the user will be automatically logged in to the Windows session, although no automatic login occurs. [CSF-1083]
● Added 04/2018- When a user tries to sync to the server while using a Latitude 7204 Rugged Machine on an XFR dock with
Windows 10 x32 and the Encryption client installed, the options
Sync and Network are not available at the PBA Log in screen. [DDPC-1638]

recovery answer fields. [DDPC-5531]
