john lydonI have a file encrypted with axcrypt which will not open at all. when I try to open the file nothing at all happens – no error messages or anything just nothing happens! had been working fine for years before this – any ideas?
WahlHello,
Did you change anything on your system ? Did you change the security on the file ? Have you reinstalled Axcrypt ?
Which version is it ? Have you checked the drive ?
Hello john,
Can you send a screen shot of how it looks like when you try to open the file (yes, I hear you’re saying nothing happens, but we’d like to see what it looks like before)?
john lydonseems to be working fine again – I think it was a registry error.
Hello john,
Just what registry error would that be? For future reference…
john lydoncan’t remember exactly – something to do with an invalid signature.
Hello john,
Thanks, but unfortunately that didn’t help at all. I was thinking if you had a “registry error”, you did something to fix it. But if you did get a message about an invalid signature, that either sounds like AxCrypt 1.x, or something completely different.
Anyway, happy it works for you.
Laurence EvansI have the same problem today. It seems dead. I cannot access all my passwords!
Hello Laurence,
Try to uninstall and re-install the AxCrypt app again and try to do the same.
If this will not help, please provide more information or send a mail to support@axcrypt.net with the detailed information of the issue.
If you can send a screenshot showing where the problem is, it often helps us understand.
Laurence EvansHi
I rebooted my computer. Usually I only enter the password – this time I was asked for user name and then password.
After that it worked.
Thanks.
