Creating Recovery Media before installing SecureDoc

It is advised to create recovery media before installing SecureDoc on Windows 8. 

To create the recovery media, follow these steps:

  • Go to registry editor:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\partmgr\Parameters]
  • Add "RMMode" [REG_DWORD], set value = 1
  • Reboot the machine, select the recovery drive and media creation can go further.
  • Delete the previous registry value, otherwise, SD cannot encrypt removable media.
