Deactivating Drive Encryption

Administrators can use the HP ProtectTools Security Manager Setup Wizard to deactivate Drive Encryption. See the HP ProtectTools Security Manager software Help for more information.

1.Launch HP ProtectTools Administrative Console. For more information, see Opening HP ProtectTools Administrative Console on page 15.

2.In the left panel, click Setup Wizard.

3.Clear the Drive Encryption check box, and then click Next. Drive Encryption deactivation begins.

NOTE: If software encryption was used, decryption starts. It might take a number of hours, depending on the size of the encrypted hard drive partition(s) . When decryption is complete, Drive Encryption is deactivated.

If hardware encryption was used, the drive is instantly decrypted, and after a few minutes, Drive Encryption is deactivated.

Once Drive Encryption is deactivated, you will be prompted to shut down the computer, if hardware encrypted, or restart the computer, if software encrypted.

Logging in after Drive Encryption is activated

When you turn on the computer after Drive Encryption is activated and your user account is enrolled, you must log on at the Drive Encryption login screen:

NOTE: When waking from Sleep or Standby, Drive Encryption pre-boot authentication is not displayed for software encryption or hardware encryption. Hardware encryption provides the Disable Sleep Mode for Added Security option, which prevents Sleep or Standby from occurring when enabled.

When waking from Hibernation, Drive Encryption pre-boot authentication is displayed for both software or hardware encryption.

NOTE: If the Windows administrator has enabled BIOS Pre-boot Security in HP ProtectTools Security Manager and if One-Step Logon is enabled (by default), you can log on to the computer immediately after authenticating at BIOS Pre-boot, without needing to reauthenticate at the Drive Encryption login screen.

Single user logon:

On the Logon page, enter your Windows password, smart card PIN, SpareKey, Face, or swipe a registered finger.

Multiple user logon:

1.On the Select user to log on page, select the user to log on from the drop-down list, and then click Next.

2.On the Logon page, enter your Windows password or smart card PIN, or swipe a registered finger.

NOTE: The following smart cards are supported:
