EnableEncryption

  • Artikel

EnableEncryption specifies whether the Microsoft ReadyBoost™ cache uses encryption.

Enabling encryption can improve system security, especially on a shared computer.

Disabling encryption can improve system performance and decrease battery consumption.

This setting affects only internal (non-removable) devices. External devices are automatically configured with encryption to prevent data theft from a lost or stolen device.

Note   Administrators can use Group Policy to ensure ReadyBoost devices are encrypted. For more information, see the MSDN topic: Group Policy.

Values

true

Specifies that the ReadyBoost cache uses encryption.

This is the default value.
