Entangle

If you share your computer with others or wish to transfer sensitive files, either online or by storing them on portable drives, it is a good idea to encrypt the data in order to prevent unwanted access.

Entangle is a compact, easy-to-use app that enables you to encrypt individual files or entire folders with very little effort. It uses AES encryption, and it does not require you to install anything on your PC.

This is a great program for those who frequently switch between multiple PCs, as it can be launched without installing anything beforehand. You can use it even if you do not have administrative rights.

You can rest assured that nothing will be left behind on the computer after shutting down the app. You can even put it on a portable storage device and take it with you wherever you go.

The small application window includes a simple file explorer, which makes it much easier to locate what you wish to encrypt. You can select an entire folder, as well as find and process individual files.

Alternatively, you can just drop items onto the application window directly, and they will be encrypted together with any files that have already been selected.

Once you have added all the items to be processed, you just need to provide a password and launch the process. However, it is worth noting that the password is not obfuscated, so make sure no one else around you can see it.

When you wish to unlock protected files, you just need to switch to the decryption mode, select the encrypted items and provide the correct password.

Overall, Entangle is a relatively straightforward utility that caters to users who need a lightweight, no-nonsense encryption tool. It greatly simplifies the process, and it enables you o protect your data using AES encryption.
