Decrypt Folder - Step 2

If the selected encrypted folder contains files or sub-folders, you will want to consider the following points before proceeding:

Create a backup of the encrypted folder before you start decryption. It is strongly recommended you use the optional backup folder option to backup the selected folder before it is decrypted.

The backup directory will contain a .ga_keyfile. This file contains the encrypted key used for the folder encryption, and is stored in the backup directory to aid in data recovery.

If existing Web Users have access to the encrypted folder, stop all services (HTTPS, FTP, FTPS, SFTP, and AS2) before continuing. The encrypted folder and files will become unavailable during the decryption process.

The 'Created On' timestamp property for existing files in the encrypted folder will be updated to the current system date/time during encryption. However, the last modified date will not be changed.

The ownership of any existing files in the decrypted folder will be changed to the user profile that started the

Managed File Transfer

application.

Enable the

Create a Backup of the Folder

option.

The Backup Location field will automatically populate with a backup directory. You can specify a different location by using the

button.

The

Backup Compression

option is set to ZIP by default. Choose NONE if you do not want to compress your backup.
