WinAES

WinAES is a small and handy software that lets you encrypt and decrypt your personal files using either the AES256 or Camellia256 security algorithms. It's pretty cool because it also has checksum calculators for MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512, and SHA3. Plus, it comes packed with several advanced security tools!

Easy to Use

The best part? You don't even need to install it! Just drop the app files anywhere on your hard drive and double-click the .exe file to get started. You can even copy it onto a pen drive and run it on any PC without a hitch! Unlike many other programs, it won't clutter up your Windows registry.

Straightforward Interface

The interface isn't flashy but it's super easy to navigate. To start protecting your files, just select an encryption method. After that, you can add as many files as you want to keep safe.

Secure Your Files

Once you've picked one of those two security algorithms, just set a password. There's also an option to securely erase the original files so no one else can recover them with special software. When you're ready to decrypt your file, all you need is the right key—simple as that!

Checksum Calculations Made Simple

If you're looking to calculate checksums, just choose one or more hash types from the list along with a file. You'll instantly see its corresponding signatures in a dedicated box.

Password Generator and More

You can even use a random password generator! Just decide how long you want the key (number of characters) and how complex it should be (like including uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols). You can input plain data or encoded text (ANSI or Unicode), plus securely erase files after setting the number of passes (1, 7, or 35).

Performance at Its Best

No errors popped up during our tests—everything ran smoothly without crashes! The app uses very little CPU and RAM too. With all its user-friendly features, WinAES is perfect for most users looking for reliable encryption tools.
