Hello,
Does anyone know of a way to suppress Encrypted File warning prompts?
i.e.
"The file 'blah.txt' cannot be copied or moved without losing its
encryption. You can to choose to ignore this error and continue, or cancel"
This occurs when copying to a network share, on a server with
NtfsEncryptionService disabled.
thanks,
andyr
 
I know of no way to disable that prompt and it really is a good idea to let a user
know that their file is going to be decrypted. You can use Group Policy in a domain
to prevent users from using EFS if you do not want them to use it. --- Steve
 
Thanks for that info David. --- Steve

You can use XCOPY /G from the command line to avoid prompts.
