Encryption is especially useful when you want to protect files outside your computer's normal access. Choose a strong password and do not save it next to the encrypted copy. Try decrypting the file before deleting the original material.
Please note the program execution used and file format when exchanging. A later or earlier version does not need to support every encrypted file in the same way. Therefore, keep track of what important archive files have been created.

First, choose what you want to secure: a complete drive, a virtual safe or separate files in cloud storage. That difference determines how to open, share and recover files. Keep your password and any key material carefully; encryption does not replace backup.

Our verdict
Encryptor fits if you want to secure single files without writing commands. First try a non-critical folder and check recovery with the saved key. Choose the method based on whom to decrypt later. Encryption does not replace a second copy; a corrupt archive also remains a problem with the right key.
