![]() Instead, only the directory structure is replicated on your device and files are downloaded on demand when you open them. It would saved me days and days of time and frustration.Some cloud providers offer that not all files are automatically synced to your device. I'm grateful they were willing to open it again, since I found other files that were not successfully copied, but I wish they could have given people more than 30 days notice before closing the accounts. Then about 5 days later (I had to travel to a friend's house, since I don't have a strong enough internet connection to download all the files), when I was done, I received an email from Boxcryptor saying ".sorry you're having so much trouble." (I sent them several messages asking what the issue could be) - and they decided to open my account again for a couple weeks so I could decrypt files. I was able to skip those files and move on. I've never seen MS Windows outperform MacOS before, but I had to switch to my Windows machine to copy/decrypt files, since Windows will ask you what to do when it encounters a read/write issue. ![]() MacOS kept terminating the file copy (decrypt) process over and over when it would run into files it couldn't read. Can I download them and use the Key with those somehow?ĭoes it help to use a local account somehow if I don't have a local copy of the files? I was able to export the key, but what do I do with the key if I don't have a local copy of the file? I can see all the files in my Google Drive though. Since I can't log in to the account on any computer, I can't actually access any of the files.Īm I screwed if I didn't download and decrypt the files to a local file system? ![]() Now, I'm locked out of the account and I don't know how to get my files decrypted and back on a local hard drive. Shortly after that, I got a new Mac computer and a new Windows laptop and I didn't want to put all that data on either of them, so I used it in some kind of online only mode that just allowed me to download one file at at time when I wanted to open it, and create and upload new files as needed. At that time, I had about 100GB of data that was on the local drive of my Windows 10 machine. I just moved to the new Boxcryptor online account system mid last year (I limped along on the old Classic for a long time). I just saw the email from Boxcryptor that my account is now locked. Is there something I am doing wrong and is there a way to speed up the process.Īlso I will never trust encryption software ever again that requires me to sign in. My main questions is how fast is Cryptomator in encrypting files? I just tried it and Its almost half the speed if not less than Boxcryptor was. ![]() If I don't decrypt all my stuff by then I am unable to do it after that date? Unfortunately I have them spread across about 15 hard drives and those BC files are backed up to my Google Account. All the files are large and in RAW format. What I am worried about is that I have 114 TB of data, mainly Photos from my DLSR and Videos from my Panasonic 4K Video Camera. So does that mean if I don't decrypt my data by then I lose all access to my data? ![]() So I have just been reading on the BoxCryptor website that come all free licenses will be cancelled. ![]()
