What will happen to my encrypted folders if the system is reinstalled or ghosted?

The encrypted folders still remain encrypted status and hold the original password once your system is reinstalled and ghosted. They can be opened and decrypted after you reinstall Best Folder Encryptor. (To prevent any unexpected situations, we suggest you to decrypt those encrypted folders before performing any special operations)

Meanwhile, all data in the system disk (Disk C) will be lost after the system is ghosted or reinstalled. Therefore, do not store your important data in Disk C. If you have encrypted data in Disk C, decrypt it and then make a backup to another disk.
