Most people think it takes lots of work to encrypt files. The freeware click crypt 2.6 allows to encrypt and decrypt files with just one click. It´s unfortunately only available in German but that does not matter a lot because the interface is simple and easy. Click on Download Sofort ausführbares Setup which starts the download. After that install the software on your system and start it. This opens a configuration window which is named Verschlüsslungsmethoden. You select the encryption algorithm that you want to use, you have three options, those are: MD2 (128bit), MD5 (128bit) and SHA (160 bit).
Click ok and you are ready to use the program using the context menu. Right click a file that you want to encrypt and select Send to / Click Crypt.
A dialog appears and you have to enter a password twice for the file that you want to encrypt. The option at the bottom deletes the file after it is encrypted, so uncheck it if you want to keep that file. Hit ok and the file will be encrypted using your password and the algorithm you´ve chosen.
If you want to decrypt the file you simply doubleclick it and enter the password in the windows that appears. That means, if you send this file to someone else he needs clickcrypt installed on his system and of course the password.
