Points to note about the Fingerprint Utility software You are able to backup saved fingerprint data and information within the PasswordBank by using the Import or Export User Data facility under the fingerprint management software. However, please be aware that any encrypted files cannot be backup within FileSafe using this function - in these instances it is recommended that you backup these files to external media using standard file copy processes. The Encrypting File System (EFS) is a Windows VistaTM feature. If a file is encrypted using EFS, it cannot be encrypted further using the fingerprint authentication function. In the Help File, it is stated that this software's PasswordBank function can be used for managing security relating to the Internet as well as for general applications. However, please be aware that the Internet PasswordBank function within the fingerprint utility provided on this computer can only be used with Microsoft's Internet Explorer software.
