Most security options on your computer are handled by an antivirus, but not all of them. For instance, an antivirus can’t keep individuals from snooping through your files when you leave your computer unattended. However, there are simple, yet highly efficient methods like FilesEncryptor with which to secure all confidential files and folders with a few mouse clicks.

Simple visuals quickly get you up and running

Before the application can even be installed on your computer it’s best to check whether or not .NET Framework is already deployed. Chances are it’s already there, because it comes as a default feature in modern Windows iterations.The application takes you directly into the heart of the whole operation, with no intro windows or descriptions to help out. On the bright side of things, the overall design is intuitive enough to quickly get you up and running, although visuals aren’t quite polished.

Secure files and folders

You’re free to process any kind of file since encryption doesn’t come with any limitations. Moreover, the application also supports entire directories which are encrypted as a whole and not just the content. However, you need to rely on the browse dialog to select files or folders, because dropping them over the main window has no effect.In case you frequently process a bunch of files this way there’s the possibility to save the profile which means having the list of files ready to be processed at all times. Encrypted files or folders end up in the same directory. Note that the original files are processed, but there’s little to no chance of files to become corrupted in the operation.Hitting “encrypt” brings up a small prompt which asks for a password. It needs to be at least 8 characters long, and you must remember it in the exact casing to be able to recover files again. The algorithm used is AES-256.

On an ending note

In conclusion, FilesEncryptor can help you keep important files and folders secure on your own computer with little to no effort at all. Original files are processed so there’s no risk of leaving any traces, and even though there’s only one algorithm to use, the application is sure to come in handy.
