Hello Alan,

AxCrypt 2 works just like your email software or most other password-protected systems. You sign in once and remain signed in until signed out. Just like you can read many emails without entering the password every time, AxCrypt will do the same. The files are still encrypted, but your password is remembered until you sign out of AxCrypt.

AxCrypt stays signed in until signed out, just like most similar applications such as your email. Once signed in, you can read, write and update information without having to re-enter the password, until signed out. AxCrypt will automatically sign out when the screen saver goes active(based on the Inactivity Sign Out configuration), or you can sign out manually.

Please note: If the file was encrypted with a different password than your sign in password, then you have to enter the file password while viewing/decrypting the encrypted file.

If somebody know your system password, so you can sign-out the AxCrypt app manually.

If you have any queries, please feel free to contact our support via support@axcrypt.net.

We are going to start working on the App optimization issues. So users will get the optimized version of the AxCrypt app in the near future.

Hello René ,

“Please avoid sending a same query in different mediums. You may get duplicate response”

There is no problem to open the encrypted file(if you know the password).We have literally hundreds of thousands of users a succeed in signing in, both using the app and the web.

AxCrypt will allow the users to decrypt the encrypted file with the original password which is used for encryption.

Please use AxBruteForce tool to recover the encrypted files.

If you think you almost know the password, we have simple software allowing you to try to find your password, and you can download the most recent version from https://account.axcrypt.net/Download/AxBruteForce.exe   and read of how to use it at https://www.axcrypt.net/axcrypt-brute-force/. Please note that we cannot provide support beyond this.

If you know the file password(which was used in the file encryption process) to decrypt/open the encrypted file. Otherwise, Without file password nobody to decrypt the encrypted file

still, if you are facing any issues, please write to Support@axcrypt.net. we are happy to help you.

Hello Benjamin,

You can use the AxCrypt key sharing feature to encrypt your file(s), then key shares the file with other recipients/employees/partner,  If they want to open the received encrypted file then we have to share the file password with them or the files should be key shared with receivers’ email addresses.

You can send the encrypted file via email(Gmail, yahoo, etc..) to other users. AxCrypt will not send the physical file.

I will explain about the key sharing features:

There is no need to share passwords in order to send or share files securely with others.

AxCrypt has a key sharing feature letting you add recipients by email address, who when they receive the file can open it with their own AxCrypt password.

Key sharing embeds the shared key into the file. The file must thus first be key shared with the recipient, then sent or file shared. Please note that AxCrypt does not share or send the actual file. To see a quick instructional video explaining how to use key sharing, please view https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9z3KOZD-Yks.

Sorry to say, AxCrypt 2.x does not support different password for different files feature due to some security reasons. Please refer our blog for more info: https://www.axcrypt.net/blog/use-of-different-passwords/

Still, if you are facing any issues, please write to Support@axcrypt.net. we are happy to help you.

Hello peter,

We are tried to re-recreate the latest version installation problem/issue with our local environment, But not able to re-create the same.

when you install the latest version of the AxCrypt app, do you have face any issue when installing the AxCrypt app future version, Please take backup this folder C:\Users\username(xxx)\Appdata\Local\AxCrypt. Please send the backup file to our support team(support@axcrypt.net). we will investigate the same.

Excel -file:

AxCrypt will keep track on the opened encrypted files, to update and re-encrypt the same. If we opened the file and updated the contents, then AxCrypt will re-encrypt the updated file.

So after editing the encrypted files, we have to click the broom icon or sign out from the AxCrypt app to re-encrypt the updated files. We have to close all the instance of the encrypted file(s) opened application.

And the AxCrypt app will be checking whether the opened file and the corresponding application are closed or not? If closed, then the AxCrypt app will automatically update the contents of the file and re-encrypt the same.

Actually, we have to close the file opened application completely, to update and re-encrypt the file. Sometimes, we have to manually click the red Broom icon, to clean and update the pending files.

For example: You opened an encrypted document and updating the document. At the same time, If you have opened another document in the same application, or even if just the application is running without an opened document, AxCrypt can’t be sure enough to actually do the re-encryption.

So we have to close all the opened application instances. If you closed all the instances.

If you have any queries, please feel free to contact our support via support@axcrypt.net.

Hello Rakesh,

AxCrypt will allow the users to decrypt the encrypted file with the original password which is used for encryption.

If you think you almost know the password, we have simple software allowing you to try to find your password, and you can download the most recent version from https://account.axcrypt.net/Download/AxBruteForce.exe and read of how to use it at https://www.axcrypt.net/axcrypt-brute-force/. Please note that we cannot provide support beyond this.

Unfortunately, if you do not know the password for an AxCrypt-encrypted file you cannot open it, even if you can sign in to the account. This is by design, it’s just this situation that AxCrypt is made for and it works like this even if you actually are the original owner of the file.

So please try to remember the file password(which was used in the encryption process) to decrypt/open the old encrypted files.

If you do not remember the password to your account, you can always reset it. This is not a way to recover encrypted files! It’s only to allow you to sign in to the AxCrypt app and web. The new password will be used to encrypt new files. Go to https://account.axcrypt.net/Home/PasswordReset to do this, or you can also go there from AxCrypt with File | Options | Password Reset.

For more info about Password Reset: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6whtjSb3pc and https://www.axcrypt.net/blog/password-reset-axcrypt/

Please note: AxCrypt is a file encryption software with no backdoor. That means, Nobody can decrypt the encrypted files without the file password used in the file encryption. This is the way AxCrypt app was designed.

still, If you are facing any issues, you can feel free to contact our support via support@axcrypt.net.
