Introduction
Crypto for Windows 95/NT

Copyright © 1986-1998 by Gregory Braun. All rights reserved.

Overview

Crypto for Windows 95/NT is a small, easy to use, file encryption utility. Simply drag and drop files and folders to quickly protect your sensitive documents, and then enter an encryption key to encode and decode the files you want to protect from prying eyes.

Crypto for Windows 95/NT is fully Y2K compliant and will work with MS Windows 98 as well as 95/NT systems.

Drag and Drop Files

Files and folders can be quickly selected for encryption and decoding by simply dragging them to the desired file list windows.

Purchasing Crypto

Crypto for Windows 95/NT is a fully functioning program. It is not crippled in any way.

Crypto  for Windows 95/NT is distributed as shareware. You may evaluate it free of charge for 30 days. After 30 days you are required to register it. If after evaluating Crypto for 30 days you decide not to register it you are required to remove it from your computer.

Registration entitles you to unlimited free updates and support via E-Mail or telephone.

You may also purchase Crypto for Windows 95/NT using your credit card via the Internet or by telephone.

Desktop Locations

Crypto’s location on the desktop is saved when the program is exited. Whenever you start Crypto it will reappear on the desktop where you last placed it. Crypto property sheet locations are also stored and reused the next time they are opened.

Taskbar Tray

Crypto for Windows 95/NT can be optionally configured to place its program icon in the Taskbar Icon Notification Tray. This option provides a simple means of keeping the taskbar button region clear for other running programs.


Installing Crypto

Installation

To install Crypto for Windows 95/NT on your computer simply create a new, empty folder and place the files; CRYPTO.EXE, CRYPTO.HLP and CRYPTO.CNT there.

CRYPTO.EXE	- The Crypto Application

CRYPTO.HLP	- The Windows 95/NT Help File

CRYPTO.CNT	- The Help Contents File

If you installed Crypto for Windows 95/NT using the SETUP.EXE program and selected the default installation setting Crypto for Windows 95/NT will be installed in the C:\Program Files\Software by Design folder.

To integrate Crypto for Windows 95/NT with the MS Windows Explorer select the Help | Setup menu item to open the Crypto Explorer Setup property sheet while Crypto is running.

Note If you have an earlier version of Crypto for Windows 95/NT installed on your computer, simply replace the CRYPTO.EXE and CRYPTO.HLP files with the newer versions. Crypto stores configuration information in the MS Windows 95/NT System Registry.

Note The CRYPTO.INI file is no longer used and can be deleted. The various application settings specified in the Crypto Options property sheet as well as the main window’s size and location on the desktop are now stored in the MS Windows 95/NT System Registry.

Note Some earlier versions of Crypto for Windows 95/NT included a CRYPTO.WRI documentation file. This file has been replaced by the CRYPTO.HLP file and can now be deleted.

Warning If you rename the CRYPTO.EXE file you must also rename the HLP file using the same basename. For example if you change the Crypto application file name to NewName.exe, rename the help file to NewName.hlp. The HLP file must reside in the same folder as the Crypto application file itself.


Configuring Crypto

Crypto Options

Select the File | Options menu item to display the Crypto Options property sheet. This window will allow you to change the various Crypto program settings listed below.

Place Icon in the Taskbar Tray

Check this item to display a small Crypto program icon in the Taskbar Icon Notification Tray. If this item is selected and the Crypto window is minimized a button will not be added to the Taskbar, to restore the Crypto window on the desktop press the small icon in the taskbar tray instead. This option is available to keep the taskbar free for other running programs.

Note When this option is selected, clicking on the Close box in the upper-right hand corner of the window title bar will minimize Crypto instead of closing the application. To quit Crypto use the File | Exit menu command or the Ctrl+Q keyboard shortcut.

Minimize Program Icon at Startup

Check this item to minimize the main window on the Taskbar or Icon tray when Crypto for Windows 95/NT is first started.

Confirm Program Exit

Check this item to confirm quitting Crypto for Windows 95/NT. When this option is selected you will be prompted to confirm your intention to exit Crypto and return to the MS Explorer desktop. This item is useful if you run Crypto from the tray and wish to avoid accidental exits when you right-click on the Crypto tray icon.

Remove the Original File After Conversion

Check this item to remove the original file after the conversion operation completes successfully. If this item is not checked the original file will remain after encrypting or decoding operations are completed.

Use NSA File Erasure Method

Check this item to thoroughly erase the original unencrypted version of the files you encrypt. If this item is not checked the original file will simply be rewritten with all blanks and then erased. If this option is selected after a file has been encrypted the original file will be overwritten six times using an alternating 0xFF / 0x00 write sequence as specified by the National Security Agency. This method assures that the original file will not be readable by sophisticated file resurrection utilities. If this option is selected it will take slightly longer to encrypt large files due to the extra disk activity required.

Log All Operations to Disk

Check this option to create a log file of all file encryption and decoding activity. The file created will be named CRYPTO.LOG and will reside in the same folder as the Crypto program itself. Each time you use Crypto additional file operations will be appended to this file. The Crypto log file is a normal ASCII file and can be viewed by any text editor or word processor that can display ASCII text.

Duplicate Files

Check this item to skip warnings when adding duplicate files in the list windows. Crypto will cancel the addition of duplicate files without prompting you if this option is selected.

Temporary Files

Check this item to skip warnings when selecting files that have a TMP file extension. Crypto will cancel the addition of temporary files without prompting you if this option is selected.

File Not Found

Check this item to skip warnings about files listed for encoding or decoding that no longer exist on the disk in the folder specified.

Directory Warnings

Check this item to skip warnings when attempting to encrypt or decode folders.

Wrong Format

Check this item to skip warnings when adding file selections that have either already been encrypted or do not need to be decoded.

Missing Extensions

Check this item to skip warnings when attempting to add files for encryption or decoding that do not include a file extension.

Invalid Password

Check this item to skip warnings when files listed for decoding do not have the encryption password key you’ve specified.

Locked Files

Check this item to skip warnings when attempting to add files for encryption or decoding that are write-protected on disk.

Sounds with Warning Dialog Boxes

Check this box to play a short beep sound when Crypto displays a warning dialog box or an error occurs.

OK

Press this button when you have completed your selection of Crypto program options. When you press this button the Crypto Options property sheet will be closed and your settings will be saved.

Cancel

Press this button to close the Crypto Options property sheet without making any changes. If you have made any changes to the option settings, and then press this button your changes will not be used, and your previous settings will remain in use.

Help

Press this button to open the Crypto Help Window and go directly to the Configuring Crypto topic.

What is Shareware

The concept of "Shareware"...

Shareware, also known as user supported software and other names, is a concept not understood by everyone. The author of Shareware retains all rights to the software under the copyright laws while still allowing free distribution. This gives the user the chance to freely obtain and try out software to see if it fits their needs. Shareware should not be confused with Public Domain software even though they are often obtained from the same sources.

If you continue to use Shareware after trying it out, you are expected to register your use with the author and pay a registration fee. What you get in return depends on the author, but may include a printed manual, free updates, telephone support, etc. Only by paying for the Shareware you use do you enable the Shareware author to continue to support his software and create new programs. Considering that the Shareware registration fees are almost always far less than the purchase price of comparable commercial software it's obvious that Shareware is a good deal for everyone.

There are real advantages to you in the Shareware system. You get to try out software to make sure it is compatible with your hardware and that it fits your needs before you "buy" it with your registration. The author saves the expense of advertising, packaging and distribution and passes the savings on to you. Plus, most Shareware authors are much more accessible than commercial software sources so that your questions and suggestions are much more likely to be responded to.

Thank you for your support.
