Editor to share with you how to use the built-in encryption function of win10, I believe most people do not know much about it, so share this article for your reference, I hope you can learn a lot after reading this article, let's go to know it!

The encryption method that comes with Win10 is tedious and cannot be opened whenever you use it, so you need to make a small modification first by typing "Regedit" in the start menu to open the registry:

Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Explorer\ Advanced, or you can copy this section to the registry address bar and enter directly.

Right-click in the space in the right column of the Advanced project and select "New-32-bit DWORD value" from the pop-up menu.

Change the name of the newly created key to "EncryptionContextMenu", then double-click the key, note that it is hexadecimal, and change the "numerical data" to 1.

After modification, right-click on any file / folder that needs to be encrypted, the right-click menu will have an additional "encryption" option, click to select. (if it does not appear in the right-click menu, restart the computer first)

If it is a folder containing files, you will be prompted whether you want to apply it all, and click OK.

If the encryption is successful, there will be a lock icon in the upper right corner of the file / folder icon.

If you don't need it, right-click the file / folder and select "decrypt".

Regardless of files or folders, encryption refers to unlimited viewing on locally encrypted accounts! Other computers are not viewable!

If you need to browse on another computer, you need to copy / back up the license certificate to another computer with your own computer that encrypts the file / folder, otherwise it is impossible.

The advantage of this encryption is that you can greatly limit the protection of your files being secretly copied by others directly on the hard disk, encrypting the files in this way, and the computer repairers can't see the contents even if they copy them.

Finally, the editor reminds you that remember to back up your certificate after encryption, it is best to upload a copy in the mailbox or network disk, otherwise, your computer cannot be turned on, you forget the encryption, and you will be dumbfounded after reinstalling the system.
