Trial version, 1.5.3 (873) When I click on Preferences/vaults—> i get multiple references to the hard disks that I have encrypted as volumes. For example, I have one HD called “My book” which was AES 256 encrypted as an entire vault. When I look in vaults, I see multiple entries for MY BOOK, one of which looks like an open suitcase which has a size, and the others are greyed out. Clicking on one of the greyed out ones, says The Vault “My BOOK” is stored on a volume that is unavailable. If the volume is an external…..

There are 5 greyed out “my Book” vaults and one real one. What are these and can I delete them? I have a screenshot but I am looking for an email address to upload it.

Thanks, wayne

My best guess at this point is that those extra copies are Time Machine backups of the vaults. Would that make sense in your configuration?

we will never know, since it took almost a month for a response to this forum, and I removed knox. Sorry, but I can’t wait 30 days for a response. Also, time machine was setup to exclude the two hard drives which were encrypted. Seemed like a good product, but also somewhat overpriced…at least in US currency.
