Won't encrypt the files!?

anselme75

Hello, i just installed boxcryptor (free) on my windows 7 pc, following the step carrefully. The program created a boxcryptor.bc folder in my dropbox folder (for syncing) and a drive boxcryptor z:
So far, everything is normal.
But, when i drag any file into z:, it is just copied in the boxcryptor.bc folder and no encryption seems to happen. It is then synced by dropbox. If i go on dropbox via internet on another computer, the file appears and is not encrypted!

I dont understand why my files are not encrypted automatically? And also how do you know if a file has been encrypted or not?

Thank you for your answers,

Sincerely
Anselme

Hello Anselme,

I answered you on the support section. If you're using the free version filename encryption is disabled. That's why your data might seem unencrypted. But if you try to open a file you'll be unable to do so.

Best wishes,
David
