AxCrypt missed few folders and files during encryption

[Rohit]

I tried encrypting a 2 GB folder. When encryption completed, I noticed few folders and files left unencrypted. I even clicked “Refresh”, still the files are unencrypted.

I am using AxCrypt 2.1.1474.0.

I’m an AxCrypt user, totally unrelated to the development of AxCrypt, but I can confirm that recursive folder encryption is not yet supported.

Recursive means folders within a folder. For example:

\Private\File 1.txt

\Private\File2.xls

\Private\Finances\

In my example above only File 1 and File 2 will be encrypted. The ‘Finances’ folder won’t be encrypted unless you manually select it.

The developer has promised that recursive encryption (i.e. the ability to encrypt everything within a folder: folders within folders) will be introduced shortly. It had been omitted because people had inadvertently encrypted critical folders!
