Hello Neutron,
With the current 2.1.1509 build, you should be automatically signed out when the computer goes to sleep, or the screen saver goes active, or of course if you sign out or actually exit AxCrypt.
Hello Aaron,
We have not heard about this. Do you have the latest version?
Hello Joshua,
Once we have implemented encryption on the mobile platforms, we’ll have a free Viewer mode available (equivalent to todays apps) – much like the Mac OS X version will work, for which we just released a beta. So right now we don’t have any plans for a one-off purchase for the apps, but they would become free to view encrypted file.
We’ll also be implementing offline licenses in the not-too far distant future. We’ve just implemented (but not yet released) the basic technology required, which is digitally signing the subscription terms.
Hello Ted,
Thanks for your input. No, you’re not the only ones with this view. On the other hand we have also quite a few who initially say this, but then come back after a little time and say they now realize how much better the AxCrypt 2 way is ;-)
Please read this also https://forum.axcrypt.net/blog/leaving-computer-axcrypt/ before forming your final opinion.
That being said, we’re working on it…
Hello Oliver,
We don’t support source code builds, but for your information – the version number is an internal build number generated by our build server. It would be too troublesome to maintain build and version numbers manually. It’s even likely when you build from the most current sources that you’re building newer code than is actually published as a versioned release.
Hello Nico,
If that’s the case, AxCrypt is not the droid you’re looking for. AxCrypt is a file encryption software, which means it encrypts single files, file by file. This has advantages and disadvantages depending on your scenario. If you are primarily interested in keeping your PC secure for the scenario where you lose it or it get’s stolen, I recommend Bitlocker to encrypt the entire hard disk or volume.
The other alternative is to use a volume encryption software such as VeraCrypt.
AxCrypt is more suitable to protect data that actually leaves your PC, for example via email or a cloud storage provider such as Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive etc.
Hello All,
The AxCrypt for Mac beta is finally here. See the announcement here: https://forum.axcrypt.net/forums/topic/axcrypt-for-mac-beta-is-here/ .
Hello everyone,
We will be providing offline license files in the not so far distant future. We’re just now developing the basic functions for it, i.e. digital signing of the license terms. They will be out shortly. From there it’s a pretty short step to allow transfer via an offline file.
Hello Stephan,
As Nelson mentioned, this is now much easier. You each use your own personal private passwords, and then you use the key sharing function to share access to the file with your colleague.
Hello raghava and Horacio,
No, sorry, we don’t support distribution of the raw APK at this time. This is the first time we ever had a request for it also, so it’s not very frequently requested. We may reconsider this in the future.
It’s also not possible to recompile the build because parts of the code is not open source. It uses the same core code as all the other versions, which is open source, but the UI-related Android/iOS-specific parts is proprietary.
Hello Cam,
Not quite yet ready… Keep a lookout for it in announcements section of the forums. It should be made available as a beta in a few days.
Hello Olivier,
As I said, if you like, you contact our support and send the file there, and we can have a look at it. Could you tell me more about the circumstances? I notice the file was last updated about 2 weeks ago. It also seems you’ve been using AxCrypt 2 since before then. Please let us know as much as possible about what you can recall, such as what version of AxCrypt you were using, and when you last successfully opened it.
Hello Gupter,
It’s only the first 16 bytes that are there to indicate that it’s an AxCrypt file. That the next 5 bytes are the same is more of a coincidence – you cannot rely on that staying the same in future versions, but you can rely on the first 16 bytes.
Hello Olivier,
All AxCrypt files start with a the same unique sequence of 16 bytes. The message indicates that the file in question does not, thus it’s not an AxCrypt file – or a very broken one.
Maybe it’s zero length, or otherwise corrupted?
If you like, you contact our support and send the file there, and we can have a look at it.
