What does the efs.copyraw option do?
Found on the ScanState Syntax document at microsoft docs site."Causes the ScanState command to copy the files in the encrypted format. The files will be inaccessible on the destination computer until the EFS certificates are migrated. EFS certificates will be automatically migrated; however, by default USMT fails if an encrypted file is found, unless you specify an /efs option. Therefore you should specify the /efs:copyraw option with the ScanState command to migrate the encrypted file. Then, when you run the LoadState command, the encrypted file and the EFS certificate will be automatically migrated.For example:ScanState /i:migdocs.xml /i:migapp.xml \server\share\migration\mystore /efs:copyrawImportantAll files must be encrypted if the parent folder is encrypted. If the encryption attribute on a file inside an encrypted folder has been removed, the file will be encrypted during the migration using the credentials of the account used to run the LoadState tool. For more information, see Migrate EFS Files and Certificates."
When using the Windows Encrypted File System what statement is accurate?
When using the Windows Encrypted File System (EFS), files are encrypted at the user level, meaning that only the user who encrypted the file can access it unless permissions are explicitly granted to others. EFS uses symmetric encryption with a randomly generated file encryption key, which is then protected by the user's password. Additionally, EFS seamlessly integrates with the Windows operating system, allowing users to encrypt files through the file properties dialog without needing additional software. However, it's important to back up encryption keys, as losing them can result in permanent data loss.
What happens to encryption when you move an encrypted file to a Windows 8 or Windows 7 Home Premium computer?
When you move an encrypted file from a Windows system to a Windows 8 or Windows 7 Home Premium computer, the file cannot be decrypted unless the destination system supports the same encryption method and the user has the appropriate decryption key or certificate. Specifically, if the file is encrypted using Windows' Encrypting File System (EFS) and the Home Premium edition does not support EFS, the file will remain inaccessible. Users should ensure they have a backup of the encryption keys or certificates to access the file on a compatible system.
