Committing Data and/or Disabling EWF

When EWF is enabled on a drive, you will need to use a special process to write data to the hard drive. Writing

data to the drive in this situation is called a Commit. Note that you must have administrator privileges to

commit data to the drive.

1. Open the EWF control dialog by right-clicking on the padlocked drive in the system tray (located in the lower

right corner of the desktop).

2. Once the EWF control dialog is open, select the drive you wish to operate on, and then click the Configure

button in the lower left corner of the window to open the EWF Configuration page.

3. Once the EWF control dialog is open, select the drive you wish to operate on from the upper window of the

dialog, and then click on the Pending Command drop-down menu below. There are four choices:

No Command

Disable: Disables EWF on the selected drive. Be aware that the system will automatically reboot if you

select this command.

Commit: Writes all current changes to the system data to the hard drive.

Commit and Disable Live: Writes all current data and changes to the system, and also turns off EWF on

the selected drive (so that all future data and system changes will also be committed to the drive, as well).

Selecting this option will NOT automatically reboot your system.
