Users Guide
Encryption Client v8.11
• Cumulative encryption exclusions are now automatically applied when the Encryption client is upgraded. This will require an encryption
sweep for each user upgraded to v8.11 or later. However, subsequent updates will require a sweep only if the update includes new
exclusions. [DDPC-1334, DDPC-5138]
• In some cases, an encryption sweep pauses and the Local Management Console continues to display "Compliance in progress...." To
restart encryption, copy WSProbe from the installation media, and run it: at the command line, enter wsprobe. [DDPC-4499]
• The user receives an access denied error when attempting to access removable media, although policy is set to allow full access to
unShielded media. [DDPC-4523]
• After upgrade to Windows 10 Fall Update using WSProbe -E on a computer with Hardware Crypto Accelerator, during re-encryption
with WSProbe -R, the Local Management Console freezes and a message displays regarding HCA key backup and provisioning.
[DDPC-4645]
• The WSScan Unencrypted Files in Violation option to list Unencrypted Files option does not indicate that the les in violation should be
encrypted. Using a previous version of WSScan will properly show these les. [DDPC-4790]
• Amended 2/2017 - Due to hibernation changes introduced in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, computers will no longer be able to
resume from hibernation when the Secure Windows Hibernation File policy is enforced. If you rely on secure hibernation, Dell
recommends that you not upgrade to Anniversary Update at this time. This issue will be xed in a future release. [DDPSUS-1346]
Advanced Authentication v8.11
• When dual authentication is congured for a user, but one of the authentication options is not yet enrolled, the icon for the unenrolled
option does not display on the user's logon screen. [DDPC-4690]
New Features and Functionality v1.4.1
• The Encryption client now supports Microsoft Windows 10 Anniversary Update (Redstone release).
• Customers upgrading to Windows 10 from an earlier version of Windows OS are no longer required to decrypt and re-encrypt data at
OS update.
• The Encryption client now supports Audit Mode. Audit Mode allows administrators to deploy the Encryption client as part of the
corporate image, rather than using a third-party SCCM or similar solutions to deploy the Encryption client. To suppress activation until
deployment is complete, install the Encryption client and perform the necessary restart when the conguration computer is in Audit
Mode.
• A new policy allows the administrator to hide Encryption overlay icons in File Explorer for managed users.
• The Encryption client and BitLocker Manager are now supported with TPM 2.0.
Resolved Technical Advisories v1.4.1
Threat Protection v1.4.1
• Upgrade to Windows 10 no longer removes the Dell certicate from the trusted certicate store. After upgrade, the Threat Protection
client now receives policies from the Dell Data Protection Server as expected, without requiring the certicate to be added back to the
certicate store. [DDPC-2237]
Encryption Client v8.10.1
• A timeout message logged during a failed activation has been modied to clarify the timeout period in milliseconds. [DDPC-2625]
• On computers running Windows 10 Education Edition, log les are now stored in \ProgramData\Dell\Dell Data Protection\Encryption as
expected, rather than in \ProgramData\Application Data\Dell\Dell\Data Protection\Encryption\. [DDPC-2651]
• An issue that caused the computer to very rarely become unresponsive when renaming a le has been resolved. [DDPC-3086]
