Help? No File Encrypted Using Fast Initial Encryption

Good afternoon all concerned,

What I was looking for today was to see whether there is a Command Line argument (or option) that can be passed to "Setup.exe" in order to get the "File encryption" versus the "Whole volume" excryption?  I appreciate the fact this discussion is over 6 months old and I thank Christian (a.k.a. "QC") for the detailed description of the two forms.

Are we talking about the same thing, though?  What I was looking for when I found this discussion is "options" to make the Intial Encryption (sometimes referred to as a "Depot Level encryption") faster.  This comes in very handy as another person posted when thousands of computers are being done and "time on task" is of the utmost importance!

It is my understanding that one only encrypts the files stored within the User Profiles of persons using the machine, while the other encrypts everything including the Operating System itself.  Perhaps this terminology is a vendor-specific definition and only applies to another product I have experience using.

The vendors of this sophisticated software all need to remember the pressure even semi-technical End Users (I.T. shop personnel) are often placed under (eg. to produce as many "finished" machines per day as humanly possible) and program in options for helping us keep our jobs !!

So far, all I was able to find was a " /v " switch described as useful for passing parameteres to "MsiExec.exe", but this did not include any details on what those parameters *might* include.

Respectfully submitted,
