    Steps to Accomplish

    1. From MicroStation main menu Workspace>Configuration, choose ‘Protection’ from the Category list on
      the left.
    2. Choose ‘Enable file protection’ from the list on the right, click ‘Edit’ button and input ‘2’ as a
      new value. Press OK and exit.
    3. Keyin: ‘Protect Encrypt Password xxxxxx’ (the password xxxxxx should include numbers and letters, the

    4. If protection is no longer required, with the file opened, Keyin: ‘Protect Encrypt Remove’ this
      will remove the encryption.
