Fast File Encryptor
Software that offers a fast and secure solution for encrypting and decrypting files and folders on Windows systems.
Description
Fast File Encryptor is software that offers a fast and secure solution for encrypting and decrypting files and folders on Windows systems. It is optimized to process extremely large files and features a flexible interface that displays detailed messages about all operations performed. Available as freeware in its basic version, with paid options for additional features, it is compatible with Windows versions ranging from XP to 11.
The program offers several integrated tools:
- Encrypt File: Allows encrypting individual files using a password defined by the user or a file as an encryption key (like an image or executable). This adds a layer of customization, useful for secure data sharing.
- Encrypt Folder: Encrypts all content of a folder just as easily, ideal for protecting large amounts of data at once.
- Often Used Files: Facilitates quick access to frequently encrypted files, streamlining the workflow.
- File Shredder: Securely deletes files or folders by overwriting the data to prevent recovery, an essential feature for eliminating unencrypted originals.
- Folder Drive: Creates virtual drives from selected folders, leaving physical disks unchanged, which simplifies access to frequently used locations.
Encryption is adjustable by a "method" slider (0 to 255), although the software does not specify the exact algorithms (it is assumed that standards like AES are used, but there is a lack of clear documentation). It also supports importing passwords from TXT files, useful for those managing multiple keys. The interface is simple and functional, but lacks detailed explanations about encryption methods, which can raise doubts for less experienced users — for example, there is no way to remember the method used in a previous encryption, which could complicate decryption if the user forgets.
Fast File Encryptor includes useful system commands, such as access to MSConfig and Regedit. In the trial version (21 days), some functions are limited; the full license, for about $19.99, removes ads and unlocks all features, as well as offering technical support and free updates.
