Security Problem : Axcrypt do not ask for password in offline mode

[Mathieu]

Hi,

When i use for the first time Axcrypt, i create an account etc. Axcrypt ask for my account password only for online mode (it is logical i agree)

But, if i cancel login and use Axcrypt in offline mode, i can encrypt and decrypt all files without asking for a password.

So, in conclusion, if my laptop is stolen, if the thief can login into my windows account, he can decrypt all the files in “Mes Documents” without need to enter a password.

It is right ?

Forget my post (and delete it) i make a big mistake in my test, i do not see that i was online mode. I redo test and for decrypt Axcrypt ask for the password.

Very sorry for the noise.
