Krypter performs routine file encryption, although it excludes quite a few standard expectations. With an effortless drag and drop using the application's tiny interface, it's easy to successfully encrypt files. Decryption is just as uncomplicated using the same basic steps. The program works rapidly and with notable precision, but we aren't too pleased with the lack of user options we're accustomed to seeing. Unlike comparable file encryptors, Krypter wouldn't allow us to determine the destination folder for our newly encrypted files. It automatically placed them alongside their original files and didn't even ask if we'd like to delete the originals. Folder encryption isn't available either, and you'll have to encrypt and decrypt your files one by one. Although more user options are available in competitive software, Krypter works fine for casual users, is efficient, and, best of all, is free.
