What is a MENC File Type?

The MENC files are named with the convention FILENAME.GUID.menc, where FILENAME is the original filename and GUID is a generated key that allows a cryptographic filter to know s' it may or may not decrypt the file.

The MENC files are designed to be decrypted by the device that created the file. MENC files can therefore be transferred to a PC using Windows ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center, but it may not be possible to decrypt the file on the computer. Change the GUID d' a MENC file will disable the ability of the decryption program to decrypt the file correctly.

To avoid encrypting files go to Settings → System or Settings → Security on the Windows Mobile device and uncheck the box that says; Encrypt files on storage cards.
