Version: 7.3-81180 - encryption key vault option upgrade

[johnnygoodface]

As mentioned in the note: "6. Added an option to automatically lock encrypted storage entities during a manual reset (Mode 1). After the reset, the key vault is erased and disabled, and encrypted volumes and shared folders are locked to prevent unauthorized access. This option is set to disabled by default."
I think that's a great addition to security and I'm about to enable this by going into Storage Manager, Global Settings, Encryption Key Vault, and clic the Upgrade and Reset button
Has anyone tried it? Issues after reboot or else? Will I be the first to try it out?

Ok I think I'll gonna wait until next version, since this is still optional
