Summary
Ever wanted to encrypt files on your chromebook? Now is the time!
With ShadyVault, you can easily open an encrypted folder just like a regular one.
However, the decrypted files only exist in-memory! This means, that they are automatically wiped as soon as you close the folder or shutdown the system.
-> Built-in security without the hassle of manually encrypting every file.
Have fun with it!
User reviews
it does NOT work it lets you add it but you cant open it to read it at all so whats the point to get peoples files and you encypt it yourself and see there secrets seems to me like a peeping tom

It doesn't work
If you copy something into it and it ask for the password just click cancel and you can get access to the files. And for all i know it took a copy of my files
