McAfee Endpoint Encryption - how to decrypt secondary drive

[PeskyBit]

Got a client who was using a Windows Vista laptop in a corporate environment with McAfee Endpoint Encryption in place. Client upgraded the laptop from Vista to Win 7 but REMOVED a secondary hard drive, which as also encrypted, during the installation process. Now client's secondary drive is encrypted and accessing the drive in the usual way is not working.

McAfee has a tutorial about creating a SafeTech boot disk, but I don't know if this would work in this situation as the problem drive is not the primary drive where the OS is installed.

Any thoughts?

you can use Encase if you have a copy

Good call! I don't have EnCase, but know a few people that probably do. Thanks.

As long as you have the keys that should not be a problem I think.

Trying to solve that puzzle also.
Image produced good file structure, but files won't open up due to McAfee Endpoint encryption.

Did anyone solve this issue?

McAfee Endpoint encryption software has to be initiated from a boot of the system.

I can create a new boot disk with encryption (using same password), will it generate same key as previous system had? so I can decrypt files within it?
