Dekart Private Disk v.2.10


Dekart Private Disk is a hard disk encryption software with a unique feature set, combining strong, NIST-certified AES 256-bit encryption with the best tools needed to build a protected infrastructure, where information can be processed in a secure way. Private Disk is compatible with virtually any version of Windows, from the discontinued Windows 95, to the latest 64-bit releases of Windows Vista 32 and 64 bit.

Simple, reliable, and versatile, this disk encryption program allows you to create multiple encrypted disks that contain confidential information. Your files and documents are hidden from unwelcome eyes, while Disk Firewall ensures that undetected Trojans, viruses or spyware will not get access to your protected data.

Features :

Dekart Private Disk creates one or more virtual disks on your hard drive and/or other external storage devices such as flash drives and ZIP disks. Once a user creates a virtual encrypted disk, that disk is assigned a new drive letter and appears to the user like any other system drive (like the A: or C: drive).

When the disk is mounted, the data is automatically encrypted and decrypted when the user writes or reads this data respectively. Dekart Private Disk encrypts and decrypts all data stored on the encrypted disk with virtually no performance penalty.

When the disk is unmounted, either manually or by logging out of Windows, the secure data it contains becomes completely unreadable and undetectable by the operating system. Because of this, Private Disk is the ideal encryption solution for flash drives and other portable devices. You can safely store confidential information on them, and it will remain protected by Private Disk even if it falls in to the wrong hands.

USB disk portability:
Private Disk's mobility allows it to be used in conjunction with a broad range of portable media, for instance: USB flash drives, external hard disks, flash memory cards, DVDs, mp3 players or portable media players such as the iPods. This 1Mb disk encryption software can be launched directly from the removable media, without having to be installed on the computer, meaning that you can work safely with your protected data, no matter where you are. The encryption program will automatically invoke the safe hardware removal dialog when you close it which will protect you from accidental data loss.

Easy-to-use, secure and reliable AES 256-bit disk encryption software. Creates one or more virtual encrypted disks on your hard drive. The ideal encryption software for external drives and devices like FDD, CD, CD/R, CD/RW, MO, MD, ZIP-disks, flash drives, all types of flash memory cards. Makes your important files invisible and protected from unauthorised access. Provides 100% protection of your private information.


Dekart Private Disk has an improved user interface, with features that are better organized and usability-tested. The new version preserves the "four button" functionality, at the same time offering enhanced password management, possibility to change virtual drive letter before disk is mounted, ability to manage multiple disks from a single application, integration with Windows Explorer, ability to mount disks both as fixed and removable disks and create encrypted and compressed backup copies of your secured data.

Encryption of external devices is easy with Dekart Private Disk. It allows you to store your information on a host of media such HDD, FDD, CD, CD/R, CD/RW, MO, MD, ZIP-disks, flash drives, all types of flash memory cards, PDAs, and even digital cameras. You have the flexibility to allow multiple users to share a single PC.

Dekart Private Disk is very easy to use and is installed within minutes. Data encryption is an effortless process, requiring only the copying of files into the designated secure drive.

You can configure the program to provide all required convenience.

Minimize control panel when clicking Close or Exit buttons
You can allow Control Panel to minimize when you click Close or Exit buttons. Set Closing the window will minimize the program to System taskbar flag to allow minimizing.

Configuring Hot keys
Select the Options tab of the Control panel menu to define the hot keys for automatic unmounting of all virtual encrypted disks and for automatic unmounting of all virtual encrypted disks on program exit. To do this, enter the desired key combination in the Dismount all disks and Dismount all disks and exit the program fields or use the default settings.

Setting file extension for the file-image
You can associate Private Disk with file-images (*.dpd). Set Associate with file extension flag to allow associations. This allows mounting encrypted disk with double-clicking on file-images from Windows Explorer.

Enable program to ask drive letter before connecting
You can enable or disable Private Disk to ask user a drive letter before mounting virtual disk. Set Choose the drive letter before connecting flag to enable this prompt. If this option is enabled the program will ask you to enter the drive letter every time you mount the disk.

Enabling/disabling event and error logging
After you select the Enable error and operation logging checkbox, dk_pdapi.log and dk_pd.log files will appear in the root folder of the system disk, which will be further used to logging all mistakes and events triggered by the users actions. If no checkbox is checked, the logging will not be enabled.

Checking for the currently opened files before disk's disconnection
Go to Private Disk Conrol Panel,t select Options tab and check the Check for opened files before disconnecting checkbox. When this option is enabled, the program will display a warning message on disk disconnection event, informing the user that there are files currently opened on the disk and allowing him to save all changes before proceeding with disk disconnection. Otherwise, the disk will be disconnected without prompting the user to save his changes.

Note. We recommend enabling this option to avoid possible information loss triggered by the disk disconnection performed without closing running applications.

Allowing to automatically explore the disk after connecting
The disk can be set up to be automatically explored in Windows Explorer after it has been connected. To enable this, go to Private Disk Control Panel, select Options tab and check the Explore disk after connecting checkbox.
