Enabling Enhanced Write Filter

Follow these steps to enable the Enhanced Write Filter. Keep in mind that, while FBWF and EWF may both be

enabled on the same machine; FBWF can not protect a volume also protected by EWF. Similarly, EWF can not

protect a volume also protected by FBWF.

1. To open the EWF control dialog, open the

system tray (located in the lower right

corner of the desktop) and right-click on

the padlock icon.

NOTE: When disabled, the icons for EWF

and FBWF are identical. After the dialog

opens b sure to verify you have opened the

correct window.

2. Select the volume you wish to enable

write-protection on by selecting the

partition (A) in the Volume Information

dialog, and then pressing the Configure

button (B) in the lower left section of the

dialog.

3. After opening the configuration dialog,

choose to enable Enhanced Write Filter on

your drive volume by selecting Enable

from the Pending command dialog and

then clicking OK to close the dialog.
