Description by the Publisher

Password protection for files using strong encryption for Windows Vista or later using the AES algorithm with 256-bit or 128-bit keys.

It combines strong symmetric encryption with compression and double-click editing/viewing.

Encrypted files have a '.AXX' extension added to their names, and are shown with a new icon.

To encrypt a file, right-click it in Windows Explorer and select 'AxCrypt | Encrypt'.

To edit or view an encrypted file - just double-click it.

To decrypt, right-click and select 'AxCrypt | Decrypt' instead.

No configuration is necessary. Run the installer, and AxCrypt is ready to use.

English, French, Spanish or Swedish will be used for messages and dialogues depending on the language of the system. Documentation and installation scripts are in English.
