Symptome

Affected Products:

  • Dell Encryption
  • Dell Data Protection | Encryption

Affected Versions:

  • v10.7.0 and Later
 

Ursache

Versions before 10.7.0 contain a driver that is called the cmgfve.inf, previously used to manage the Dell Data Protection | Hardware-Cryptographic Accelerator. This driver is no longer required, and improperly removing this driver may result in an operating system failure. Upgrades to older versions that may contain this driver are being blocked to allow for a guided transition, to avoid these operating system failures.

A message is displayed, when attempting to update from version 8.16.0 and earlier stating:

The Dell Encryption client supports upgrading from v8.16.0 or later. Upgrade to v8.16.0 before upgrading to [Version of Dell Encryption attempting to be installed].

Lösung

If this error message is seen, upgrade Dell Encryption to version 8.17.0 or later before updating to version 10.7.0.
