RouterPassView Changelog

What's new in RouterPassView 1.90

Oct 21, 2020
  • Added new display mode: 'Router File Information' (F6). When you choose this display mode, RouterPassView displays additional information about how the file is encrypted, including File Type, Encrypted Data Start Position, Encryption Algorithm, Encryption Key, Encryption IV, Compression.
