sdad1973 – AxCrypt 2.1 doesn’t ask me for an encryption password

[Simon]

I installed version 2.1.1393.0 on my computer.

When I am logged in to AxCrypt, application does not ask me for file encryption password each time I open file.

This is also analyzed in next discussions:

Hello Simon,

AxCrypt 2 now use a single sign on model where the same password is used to sign in to our servers and to protect your files. The password that you’re being asked for is the password to your account, which you probably created when you first installed AxCrypt.

AxCrypt 2 works just like your email software or most other password-protected systems. You sign in once, and remain signed in until signed out. Just like you can read many emails without entering the password every time, AxCrypt will do the same. The files are still encrypted, but your password is remembered until you sign out of AxCrypt.

AxCrypt stays signed in until signed out, just like most similar applications such as your email. Once signed in, you can read, write and update information without having to re-enter the password, until signed out. AxCrypt will automatically sign out when the screen saver goes active(based on the Inactivity Sign Out configuration) or you can sign out manually.
