He's going to be interested in looking through your photos or files if he's reputable
Make sure you have a non encrypted back up hidden somewhere. On a DVDRW in the attic or something. You could also upload your truecrypt file to a online service.
Maybe I have a simplistic view here, but why can you not transfer all sensitive files to USB or disk, and re install them when it is fixed, all my sensitive files are in one folder.
Thanks again everyone. I downloaded Truecrypt and did the encrypted file part rather than the partition. I then bunged everything into it so everything is protected and only I and wife know the password.
I'm not by any means a computer expert but surely the repair guy is an expert and can get into any system so I'd say all that encryption is a waste of time.
In any case what is in your photos that you don't want anybody to see. I'm sure the repair guys has no interest, nor time to be looking at people photos or files. What could he possible do with them.
