Re: Operating system does not support encryption

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hey Essam,

Can you tell us on which exact steps of your actions lead to this error?
Were you creating/opening/operating a password protected database file?
Are the database encryption requirements met by your target platform on
which this error occurs.

Can you try using MD5 and RC4 algorithms in the same machine in a
similar manner of using SQL CE and see if you were able to use those
encryption and authentication API?

Thanks,
Laxmi
