AEPE provides a straightforward way to secure your files by integrating encryption, decryption, shredding, and file compression abilities into your Microsoft Windows Explorer right-click menu. This software offers a quick and efficient solution to protect your important files with a single mouse click.
Encrypting files has never been simpler with AEPE's strong encryption algorithms that include the Advanced Encryption Standard (Rijndael), Blowfish, DES, and CAST. All these algorithms are industrial encryption standards that guarantee your files' safety. Additionally, you can use shredding to safely remove files from your system. The shredded files cannot be restored, not even with Norton Unerase software.
AEPE also allows you to create SFX (Self-extracting archives) files from your regular files. With SFX files, you can send encrypted .exe files to your friends and partners, and they won't need any software to extract important data. They'll only need the password that you provide. This software also compresses your files during encryption, reducing their size by 50-500%, and don't worry, you can always restore the original files using your password.
You can also browse the contents of ZIP archives and extract them. AEPE even allows you to create your compressed ZIP archives. Moreover, you can use a riddle for your password inside an encrypted file to ensure that you never forget your password. All these features show that AEPE uses the power of standard Windows to work with your important files. It integrates into Windows Explorer's context menu, allowing you to work with your data on your computer drives with just a single mouse click.
In conclusion, AEPE is an excellent software for encryption, decryption, shredding, and creating SFX files that works with .ZIP files using the standard Microsoft Windows Explorer. It has an impressive array of features that make it easy to work with your important files, ensuring their safety with strong encryption algorithms. You can't go wrong with AEPE!
