Hello Thomas,
If you are added the new file in a secured folder, then you have to click the “Broom icon” from the AxCrypt app. now your newly added file is encrypted. Without click the broom your file are not encrypt.
AxCrypt Secured Folder: — AxCrypt secures files, individually. However, you can designate folders as ‘secured’. The folders will be monitored for new files, and AxCrypt will secure all new files with a single click.
AxCrypt Re-Encryption with a Broom icon:
If the file in fact is located in a folder designated as “Secured”, it will soon be re-encrypted again since those folders are monitored for unencrypted files and will encrypt them when you click the “Broom” clean up icon.
still, if you are facing any issues, please write to Support@axcrypt.net. we are happy to help you.
