encrypt files in folders & subfolders

[SvanteSpectator]

Hi William,

You write: “Nobody can then blame AxCrypt if they lose their data“.

The unfortunate fact is that this happens on a daily basis in various similar situations, most commonly forgotten passwords.

Therefore, we’ll be requiring a user to enter the password again when changing options. We’ll still be getting some angry users blaming AxCrypt when they encrypted C:\Windows…

Thanks for your input!

Hi – just adding my chorus to those who want subfolder encryption included as a feature or option. William makes a good suggestion. I would go so far as to say that this feature may  determine whether my organization buys Axcrypt after the trial  period is over.

Thanks.

Thanks Ron,

Noted!

I’m confused. Actually If I encrypt a directory using the contextual command “Encrypt” then it recursively encrypts everything. If I add a directory to “Secured Folders” it only encrypt automatically 1st level files.

From what I’m reading in this thread and considering the set-and-forget concept behind Secured Folders feature I’d expect to be the contrary. I really need a clarification.

Hello Albatros,

Yes, you’re right. It *is* a bit confusing… But that is how it works right now. We’ll be changing this. Thanks!

What is happening to the recursive development? When can it be expected. I have clients waiting for this feature and I have to keep putting them off.

Thank you.

It looks like it’s nearly ready according to their development website.

Hello Cyborg & skipro,

Development is finished, and there’s just some testing to be done before release, planned next week. Just so it doesn’t come as a surprise, this feature is a part of the Premium Plan.

I’m a standard user but it’ll be worth the upgrade for me.

When you release the new version next week I’ll pay for the upgrade then.

It’s been a long time coming.

How will we know when it is available? Where on the web site will the new info regarding this feature be displayed or added?
