Bernie,

I considered reverting back to V1 but was concerned that V2 encrypted files would then not work on reverted V1. True? The additional open of account is a pain for a HOME user, but using a simple phrase as password that you can remember rather than a PW generator generated one helps. I would still like an option to eliminate the account signin if I want to. I understand that if I am in an office environment someone could sneak into my office and somehow get onto my system and encrypt some of my other files using their passphrases, but gee even that is ridiculous since I would have my PC signin protected. Thus, the account sigin is overkill and also questions privacy issues since after signed in your secured files are listed. I vote to eliminate it entirely.
