Encrypted files Xiaobian means stronger than the virus!

This morning's "News Tea Fan", a small partner left a message asking the Ali cloud security team's virus recovery tool is how to crack the virus encrypted file? Actually, ah, it hasn't cracked the encrypted file yet, but it only deals with the data recovery work done by the virus-deleted file. If the files on the SSD are encrypted, the hope of recovery is even worse.

Since the issue of encryption is mentioned, Xiaobian believes that no matter who is on the computer, there will be some unsightly little secrets. If you want to avoid being seen by anyone, it will be harder and harder. Not to mention old-fashioned tactics such as multi-tiered folders, hidden files, and compression and passwords. It's really no silver here. Want to know how Xiaobian puts a secret on the table? Absolutely let you imagine, but the editor-in-chief can not see drops!

Now, right-click on "Manage" on this computer (or My Computer) and select "Disk Management" on the left side. Then click "Operation" on the task bar and select "Create VHD".

Set the capacity, storage format, and type of privacy space in the Create and Attach Virtual Hard Disk dialog box that pops up.

One type of virtual hard disk type Xiaobian suggest that you choose "dynamic expansion" can reduce the first time to create a virtual hard disk. The virtual hard disk format can be selected according to their own needs, whichever you choose. Need to pay attention to the pinch: If you choose the "fixed size", then you must first think about how much space you need to "hide the file" before setting it up. Once you set the size of the file, it will be very troublesome to expand it. The operation is repeated again.)

After the VHD is created, right-click the newly created virtual hard disk to initialize it.

Then continue to right-click the virtual hard disk to create a new simple volume.

Now when we look at "this computer", we will see the extra virtual hard disk.

Everyone is using BitLocker that comes with Windows to encrypt it and follow the prompts in the popup window. There are no obstacles.

Set privacy space password or use smart card to unlock

Must pay attention to: Save the password recovery file is the only certificate to retrieve the password, Xiao Bian is backed up to the Microsoft account up, not because of accidental deletion can not access the file.

After BitLocker encryption is complete, you can right-click and select "Eject" virtual disk to save the data. From now on, when you want to check your own little secret, just double-click the saved VHD file and mount it on the drive letter. Do not want to use, delete it directly.

Ah, these methods, people who encounter knowledgeable people will inevitably appear flaws, Xiao Bian also has a trick to change the VHD file suffix name when not in use. Gho, need to use when manually changed. VHD, It's a real right thing (Windows 7 ~ Windows 10 Professional must-have skills oh).
