What kind of Encryption?

edit

DPAPI has been around since Win2K (at least). Obviously, the encryption available then was not the same as the encryption available now. I think this means that Win11 will request encryption not available on Win2K, and that encryption done with Win11 won't work with decryption done with Win2K. And I think encrypted keys are shared in Domain systems. But I'm not seeing much explanation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.243.156 (talk) 10:26, 30 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
