To form a list of hard drives excluded from encryption:

  1. Open the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.

    • Click the Configure policy link located in the right part of the Administration Console workspace.
  6. In the Data encryption section, select Full Disk Encryption.
  7. In the Encryption technology drop-down list, select the Kaspersky Disk Encryption option.

    Entries corresponding to hard drives excluded from encryption appear in the Do not encrypt the following hard drives table. This table is empty if you have not previously formed a list of hard drives excluded from encryption.

  8. To add hard drives to the list of hard drives excluded from encryption:
    1. Click the Add button.

      The Add devices from Kaspersky Security Center list window opens.

    2. In the Add devices from Kaspersky Security Center list window, specify the values of the following parameters: Name, Computer, Disk type, and Kaspersky Disk Encryption.
    3. Click the Refresh button.
    4. In the Name column, select the check boxes in the table rows corresponding to those hard drives that you want to add to the list of hard drives excluded from encryption.
    5. Click OK.

    The selected hard drives appear in the Do not encrypt the following hard drives table.

  9. If you want to remove hard drives from the table of exclusions, select one or several lines in the Do not encrypt the following hard drives table and click the Delete button.

    To select multiple lines in the table, select them while holding down the CTRL key.
