anyone using bitlocker?

[_Jimlad_]

just a quick question really,

do i have to turn it on and encrypt my entire drive or can i just use it to encrypt certain files and folders?

As far as I am aware it is all or nothing with BitLocker

(speaking from Windows 7 Ultimate)

If you right-click a Folder > Properties > Advanced (under General tab) you can check or uncheck "encrypt contents to secure data" which as far as I know is just the same as EFS in XP Pro.

TrueCrypt is good for making encrypted containers if that's what you want.
