File Guard (Encryptor | Decryptor)

Encrypt or decrypt any file with just one click inside your browser!

File Guard (Encryptor | Decryptor) is a user-friendly Chrome extension that empowers you to encrypt or decrypt individual files directly within your browser. Leveraging the browser's built-in WebCryptoAPI, it provides strong, reliable security without requiring any additional software.

Its intuitive interface simplifies the process: just load your file via drag-and-drop or file selector, set a password, and hit encrypt or decrypt. Encrypted files are automatically downloaded, making file protection seamless. For folders, compress them into a single archive before securing. Remember, your password is crucial for access—no recovery options are available. Perfect for anyone seeking quick, effective file encryption directly in Chrome.

Работает. Создает действительно зашифрованную копию любого выбранного вами файла (текстового, архива, картинки и т.д.) , потом можно поменять ее название на "autoexec.bat" и отправить кому-нибудь.

Nice, easy and intuitive. Works great on Neverware OS v70.4.39, however I do hope that there is no shady stuff in the code. Thanks for nice addon, just what I needed.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

File Guard (Encryptor | Decryptor) does not require any sensitive permissions.
