How to decrypt files using FenixPyre Standalone Encryption Utility ?

Offline Bulk Decryption (Old Tenants)

This guide walks you through the installation and execution of the FenixPyre Encryption/Decryption Tool, designed specifically for customers who need to perform offline bulk decryption of files.

📋 Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

• Administrator Privileges - You must have Admin rights on the Windows machine to install the service and modify the Windows Registry.

• Support Files - You must obtain the FenixPyre Encryption/Decryption Tool ZIP file and your organization's specific DB file directly from the Support Team.

• Organization Details - Your specific Organization ID (orgId) and administrator email (username).

Uninstall the FenixPyre Windows Agent first. It is recommended to uninstall the FenixPyre Windows agent before installing the service. This avoids conflicts between the agent and the standalone enc-dec tool when accessing the local secure database.
