[QUOTE="Fabian Wosar, post: 496492, member: 24327"] The first track of the disk is historically unused and does not contain any data. So there are no files there. Even a guest OS would have to be able to read the MFT to make sense of the data on that partition. Since the MFT is encrypted, it will just throw an error when you try to access the partitions that have been encrypted that way. [/QUOTE]
