AESxWin

Securing your files seems to be more important than ever, especially when you consider how much data we store in the cloud. However, it can be difficult to find a program that enables you to encrypt large numbers of files easily.

AESxWin is a compact, portable app that can provide a solution. It encrypts your data using the AES 256-bit algorithm, and it is capable of processing any number of files at once.

Securing your files could hardly be simpler, as you can load individual items or an entire folder at once, and the application even offers support for drag and drop. You can also specify whether or not subfolders should be included.

Once you have provided the password, you need only click the Encrypt button and let the app do its thing. Decrypting the secured files is just as simple, and the program can even delete the original ones automatically.

If you have added one or more folders to the processing queue, you can then specify which of the contained files should be encrypted based on their extensions.

A few categories are included and can be selected from a drop-down list, such as images, videos, audio and documents. However, you also have the option of entering the extensions manually.

Since AESxWin relies on the popular AES Crypt encryption library to secure files, you can decrypt them with any application created with the same source code.

It is also worth noting that the program can be run directly from the downloaded executable file, as there is no need to go through an installation procedure beforehand. It leaves no traces behind and can be launched from portable storage devices.

To sum up, AESxWin is a straightforward app that can help you secure your files using the AES 256-bit encryption algorithm, as well as decrypt protected files. It is lightweight, easy to use and fully portable.
