Points to note about the Fingerprint Utility software
The Encrypting File System (EFS) is a Windows Vista™ feature.
If a file is encrypted using EFS, it cannot be encrypted further using the
fingerprint authentication function.
You are able to backup saved fingerprint data and information within the
PasswordBank by using the Import or Export User Data facility under the
fingerprint management software. However, please be aware that any
encrypted files cannot be backup within FileSafe using this function - in
these instances it is recommended that you backup these files to external
media using standard file copy processes.
