The location of the default keyrings has changed since FileCrypt 1.0. When upgrading your existing copy of FileCrypt Desktop to a newer version, the installer asks you to move your keyrings to another location. The user will be able to monitor and act on each step of the sanitization (although only power-users should do this). Normal users should just agree on everything.
