ES File Explorer Encrypt For PC

If you are working with sensitive documents, you might want to consider protecting your content from unwanted access.

Although you can secure your whole system by setting a global password, file encryption can prove to be a more efficient way to prevent others from tampering with your data. If you find yourself in the situation above, ES File Encrypt-Decrypt might prove to be useful for you.

Note that this application requires .NET Framework to run as intended.

This application's installation process requires no additional configuration on your part, therefore allowing you to access it effortlessly. It comes with a minimalistic user interface that encompasses straightforward functions, thus adding to its overall simplicity.

However, note that it does not feature any help manual that you can rely on if you get stuck while operating it.

Although its features are quite intuitive, unfortunately, some of this application's controls can be confusing, especially for novices. For instance, clicking the “Add File(s)” button from the Encrypt Files tab only allows you to import ESLOCK files (already encrypted), while the same button under the Decrypt Files tab supports any file format.

Its functions are mixed up and the only way to bypass this bug is to rely on ES File Encrypt-Decrypt's drag and drop functions.

You can rely on this tool if you want to secure documents on your computer by encrypting them. Doing so is possible by specifying the desired files and typing a password. On the downside, this application does not allow you to define a destination path, as it uses the source folder as a default value. However, you can choose to encrypt the file name, as well, for enhanced security.

Decrypting your files can be achieved by selecting the corresponding file and typing a valid password in the dedicated field. Similarly to the Encryption process, the application keeps the original folder as the default destination path.

To wrap it up, ES File Encrypt-Decrypt is a lightweight tool that can help you encrypt and decrypt files on your computer with ease. However, note that it comes with a few functionality flaws that might puzzle you and it features no form of help documentation.
