Symantec strongly recommends administrators to review and test the upgrade scripts and make necessary changes prior to the deployment or upgrade. This ensures that the customized upgrade script meets the needs of that business environment, including any installed third-party applications. Testing the script also confirms that all the customizations and configuration changes work as expected. Administrators must use the process described in this article as a reference point for the in-place upgrade process. You can upgrade your Windows client computers encrypted with Symantec Encryption Desktop to a Windows 10 release without decrypting and re-encrypting the drives. To upgrade your client computers using in-place upgrade, you may choose one of the following methods: Manual upgrade <ul> <li style="background: white; margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">Perform all the pre-upgrade tasks that are mentioned in the Before you begin to upgrade section, and then perform the instructions that are mentioned in the Upgrading your client computers manually section. Both these sections are available in this article.</li> </ul> Upgrade with scripts Automated upgrade using your custom script <ul> <li style="background: white; margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">Automate the tasks mentioned in the Before you begin to upgrade section and the Upgrading your client computers manually section, and any other tasks per your organization’s requirement, and then deploy and upgrade using any remote deployment software, such as Ghost Solution Suite.</li> </ul> Automated upgrade using the upgrade script files (attached to this article) <ul> <li style="background: white; margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">Perform all the pre-upgrade tasks as mentioned in the Before you begin to upgrade section. Then using the appropriate upgrade script that is attached to this article, perform the instructions as mentioned in the Upgrading your client computers using the upgrade scripts section.</li> </ul> Before you begin to upgrade To plan your deployment or upgrade, you must first complete the preparatory tasks mentioned in this section before you begin the actual upgrade process. <ol> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Backup all your data to an external drive. </li> <li>Extract the Windows 10 installation media (ISO) to a network shared folder. Ensure that the folder name does not contain any spaces. For example, copy the ISO file to <a href="file://filerserver/windows10media">\\fileserver\windows10media</a>. To create a Windows 10 installation media (ISO), refer to the Microsoft documentation.</li> <li>On the Windows computer that you want to upgrade, map the shared folder to a local drive using the command prompt with administrator privileges. For example, to map the shared folder <a href="file://filerserver/windows10media">\\fileserver\windows10media</a> to the drive Z, use the following command: net use z: <a href="file://fileserver/windows10media">\\fileserver\windows10media</a></li> <li>Close Symantec Encryption Desktop. Ensure to exit PGPTray and any other PGP service.</li> <li>Unmount any virtual media or mounted drivers.</li> <li>Set the computer sleep timer to one hour or more.</li> <li>Enable preboot bypass on the computer that you want to upgrade. For information on preboot bypass and how to enable it, see <a href="https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO42006.html">https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO42006.html</a>.</li> </ol> Upgrading your client computers manually Before you perform the following steps, ensure that you have performed all the steps mentioned in the Before you begin to upgrade section. <ol> <li>Create a local folder on the Windows computer that you want to upgrade. For example, C:\PGPTemp. </li> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Copy the following files from the client computer to the local folder (for example, C:\PGPTemp) that you created in step 1:</li> </ol> <ul> <li>Encryption driver files: PGPwded.sys, PGPwded.inf, PGPSdk.sys, PGPSdk.inf</li> </ul> Note: The encryption drive files are available on the client computer at %systemroot%\System32\drivers. Caution: If the encryption driver files are not copied from the same client computer, the client computer may not boot after upgrade because of missing files or driver version mismatch. <ul> <li>Symantec registry: RegisterPGPDESoftware.reg</li> <li>Batch file: setupcomplete.cmd</li> </ul> Note: The Symantec registry file and the batch file are present in the compressed folder that is attached to this article. Download the compressed folder from the Download files section on this page. To download the appropriate compressed folder, see the table Upgrade scripts for Symantec Encryption Desktop 10.4.x client computers to upgrade to a Windows 10 update in this article. <ol> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;" value="3">Run the following commands:</li> </ol>  <tt>Z:\setup.exe /reflectdrivers C:\PGPTemp /postoobe C:\PGPTemp\setupcomplete.cmd</tt> Note: During the in-place upgrade process, Windows 10 copies new files temporarily to a staging area.  As the disk is already encrypted, the files in the staging area get encrypted. If the Windows operating system does not have access to the encryption drivers and the encryption passphrase, the in-place upgrade fails. Therefore, ensure to use the /reflectdrivers option of the Windows 10 setup.exe command during the in-place upgrade. The /reflectdrivers option provides access to the encryption drivers during the in-place upgrade process. <ol> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;" value="4">The Windows 10 setup wizard is displayed. Follow the instructions on the wizard to finish the upgrade.</li> </ol>   Upgrading Opal/hardware-encrypted client computers manually Caution: If your client computer is Opal/hardware-encrypted, do not use the attached upgrade scripts to upgrade. Instead, follow these steps: <ol> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Decrypt the Opal drive.</li> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Uninstall Symantec Encryption Desktop.</li> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Use the appropriate installation media of a Windows 10 release that you want to upgrade, and then perform the upgrade.</li> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Install all the required Windows updates.</li> <li style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0pt;">Re-install Symantec Encryption Desktop.</li> </ol> Upgrading your client computers using the upgrade script files About the upgrade script files The upgrade script files are compressed and attached to this article for download.

On certain systems running the Windows 10 October 2018 Update (RS5)  or the Windows 10 May 2019 Update (19H1) enabled with Hypervisor-Enforced Code Integrity (HVCI), if you install Symantec Encryption Desktop 10.4.2 MP1 or 10.4.2 MP3, the PGP Disk driver is not loaded successfully. Also, the PGP Virtual Disk functionality does not work. Note: This issue happens only on Windows 10 RS5 and 19H1 systems that meet certain hardware and firmware requirements with VBS enabled by default. For more information on the hardware and firmware requirements, see the Microsoft article available at <a href="https://note:%20this%20issue%20happens%20only%20on%20windows%2010%20rs5%20systems%20that%20meet%20certain%20hardware%20and%20firmware%20requirements%20with%20vbs%20enabled%20by%20default.%20for%20more%20information%20on%20the%20hardware%20and%20firmware%20requirements%2C%20see%20the%20microsoft%20article%20available%20at%20https/docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/device-experiences/oem-vbs.%20This%20issue%20is%20not%20observed%20when%20you%20upgrade%20to%20Windows%2010%20RS5%20using%20the%20in-place%20upgrade%20process.%20For%20more%20information%20on%20in-place%20upgrade,%20see%20the%20https:/support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO125876.html.">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/device-experiences/oem-vbs</a>. This issue is not observed when you upgrade to Windows 10 RS5 or 19H1 using the in-place upgrade scripts. For more information on the in-place upgrade, see the article <a href="https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO125876.html">https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO125876.html</a>.

Restart the computer. 3. Ensure that the PGP Disk driver is loaded successfully. <h2 style="background: white; line-height: 18pt; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">Troubleshooting email communication issue after upgrading to Windows 10 RS4</h2> Known issue: Email communication fails after upgrading Windows 10 computers encrypted with Symantec Encrypted Desktop to Windows 10 RS4 When Windows 10 computers that use IMAP or POP3 for email communication are upgraded to Windows 10 RS4 using the in-place upgrade scripts, the email encryption does not work. Also, the IMAP or POP3 profiles cannot be created and the email communication fails. The cause of the issue is that the Layered Service Providers (LSP) feature that Symantec Encryption Desktop uses for email encryption is not upgraded in RS4. LSP is deprecated in Windows systems.  Solution A fix for this issue is now available in the version 10.4.2 MP1 of Symantec Encryption Desktop for Windows release. To prevent this issue from happening, first, upgrade to Symantec Encryption Desktop 10.4.2 MP1 or later, and then upgrade to Windows 10 using the appropriate in-place upgrade script.
