RE: Resetting 'secrets'

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Error Message:

The maximum number of secrets that may be stored in a single system
has been exceeded. The length and number of secrets is limited to
satisfy United States State Department export restrictions.

Although YOU may not have installed encryption or encrypted software on your
machine (knowingly) ; encryption and/or limits may be installed in seemingly
innocent software.

Historical situations of just a few years ago mandated that US developed
software, by law, was restricted when it came to encryption above rather low
levels - when compared to commercially available software today.

Check your logs to see if you can narrow down the source of the error
message, then contact the vendor... otherwise, contact MS directly to see if
they have an explanation. A search of the "Web" shows this is not as
infrequent as you would think. So far, no simple solutions nor explanations
have surfaced.
