Am I missing something?

ryanweb

I just used the program to encrypt the "Documents" folder on my NAS drive. When I view the drive in Windows explorer I see the "Documents" folder. When I view the drive in Boxcryptor's mounted drive, I see the folders "Documents' and "Documents_encrypted"

I am trying to understand this behavior. Can someone please explain it to me? I thought I'd just end up with one folder on my server that's encrypted. Thanks!

Hello ryanweb,

the "_encrypted" and "_decrypted" name are appended to folders/ files when doing a manual encrypt/ decrypt operation.
This is done to avoid sync issues.

Please have a look here:
