No possibility to encrypt mbr system disk with key file in new version? #83

In 1.2 beta 3 and 1.1 from ntldr there was ability to encrypt mbr system disk with keyfile. Now in 1.3 beta this option is disabled (greyed). I can't use it and can't find in program settings the ability to turn it on again. It's a bug? This option is very useful to boot from pxe iso file, that contains encryption key, so computer can be booted in LAN without user interruption and it prevents access to data if computer is stolen/lost.

I think it's a bug. I've encrypted my system drive with keyfile in old version of diskcryptor (from another Windows instance), set efi bootloader with the same embedded keyfile in new version of diskcryptor and it works well. But I can't encrypt the system drive with keyfile in new version of diskcryptor and if I try to boot from this drive (only with password) with diskcryptor bootloader with embedded keyfile it doesn't boot. Please fix this bug.
