Managing EncrypTight Accounts
EncrypTight User Guide 65
Although the Login preferences are not saved, user data is preserved through an upgrade (user ID and
password). If user authentication was disabled prior to the upgrade, it will be enabled in the new software
version. You will be required to enter a user ID and password when starting EncrypTight after the
upgrade. Take one of the following actions to avoid being locked out of the application after upgrading to
a new version of EncrypTight.
● Make sure that you know a valid EncrypTight administrator user name and password prior to
upgrading.
● Delete all users prior to upgrading. The default user ID and password of admin/admin will remain as
a valid account after all other users are deleted.
You can see existing accounts in the User Accounts editor (Edit > User Accounts). If you have any
doubts about how to log in to an existing account, reset the administrator password.
