Hi,
thanks to all for the replies, I remove AXcrypt and then reinstalled and now when I click on a file it asks for a password, I put the same pwd that was set for the old version of AxCrypt but it does not recognize it.
It’s not a big damage because in any case I can got the files again from other drives where they are not encrypted..but I cannot understand why I cannot open the files with the unique pwd that was set. for sure everything was fine before putting all these in file in a rar file…
Just for fun I will try to find a bruteforce attack password cracker and try to retreive the pwd that for sure should be the one the I set months ago, I usually set password with specific part of word and number so I can limit the research to a specific range of characters.
thanks again
gm
