When setting the policy, functions may be restricted due to the environment being used.
For details, please refer to “1.2.8 File Export Prohibition ”.


When prohibited, File Export Utility can still be used to export files and folders. Encrypted export or export directly in plain text can be selected.

Steps to make prohibition effective through policy setting

  1. Set Policy
    Set policy in the [Terminal Initial Settings] window, the [User Policy Settings] window or the window right after the Management Console (the CT policy settings window) is started.
    The conditions for prohibiting file export are set in the [File Export Prohibition] tab.

  2. Reflect Policy
    The set policy will be reflected to the database.

  3. Apply Policy
    The set policy will be applied to the client (CT).

  4. File export operation
    When intending to export files and folders in the client (CT), the status will become one of the following:

    • Unable to export

    • File Export Utility can be used to perform encrypted export

    • Encryption Function is not available.

    • File Export Utility can be used to perform unencrypted export

    • Able to export

    When exporting to DVD/CD, the operations will be different according to the media. For details, please refer to “1.2.8 File Export Prohibition ” and “1.2.5 Export Utility ”.

    For operations, please refer to “Systemwalker Desktop Keeper User’s Guide: for Client”.


When prohibited

When intending to export files and folders to the drive of a prohibited target without using “File Export Utility”, the prohibition window will be displayed in the client (CT). An example of prohibition window is as follows:

When decrypting the file exported with encryption using File Export Utility, the following window will be displayed if the number of times the user attempts to enter the password exceeds the [Password Attempts] displayed in the [Encrypted File Settings] window, and the encrypted file will be deleted.

When decrypting the file exported with encryption using File Export Utility, if [Password Attempts] in the [Encrypted File Settings] window is displayed as 4 or more, the following window will be displayed after password entry fails three times, and the decryption will be terminated.

When decrypting the file exported with encryption by using File Export Utility, the following window will be displayed if the time has exceeded [Decryption Deadline] displayed in the [Encrypted File Settings,] but the decryption operation can still be performed, and the encrypted file will be deleted.
