9. Enter the extension. NOTE: the encryption key is selected in the previous steps.
It is not possible to change the key in this window (Select is disabled). Also, only
the extension should be entered - any wildcards or dots (“doc” and not “*.doc”,
or “.doc”) should be omitted.
10. Click OK and observe the extension being listed below the process name. Repeat
this step if you want to add multiple extensions to one process. If you would like
to have all files created by a particular process, simply enter a wildcard only, i.e.
“*” as file extension.
11. Repeat the above steps for adding additional processes and/or extensions.
Remember to mark the appropriate headline before you click Add, i.e. mark
Process Specific and then Add to add a new process; mark a particular process
name and then Add to add an extension to the marked process.
The following pictures show an example setup where all temporary files (*.tmp)
created by Microsoft® PowerPoint™ and Microsoft® Excel™ are encrypted with the
Management Key. Also, PowerPoint™ PPT files, Excel™ XLS files, Word™ DOC files
and TXT files created through the Windows Explorer (i.e. created by using the
Windows’ right-click option New…) will be encrypted with the Management Key.
