wd my passport unlocker

Post by coccolino »

Hi guys
I'm having a little problems with my disk.
On my job I've installed and activated WD unlocker under xp, but I can't get it unlocked on mint
If I try run unlocker over wine I get the following message
"The application has encountered an unexpected error and is now exiting."

Is there WD unlocker for mint? Or something similar so I don't have to disable my protection?

Thanks in advance

No. You are going to have to get rid of it or do some creative partitioning if you really must have it and want to dual boot.

Or maybe TrueCrypt (after unlocking it in win$) could be a solution too, due it's also a portable app and works in win$ as well as in Linux :)
Simply, make a TC container for whole disk and then have it encrypted&secured.
