Hi,
Is there a way I can password protect the saved file (*.frp)
Thanks!
Password Protection?
Re: Password Protection?
Unfortunately, there isn't a way to protect the .frp files. They're plain text files that can be read with any text editor.
One workaround is to use full disk encryption such as bitlocker on your computer to encrypt everything you save on your computer.
Another workaround is to use a file encryption tool such as veracrypt to create encrypted storage on your hard drive that you can save your .frp files into. The way this works is that you create a single file using the encryption tool by specifying a max size for the contents and a few other basic settings. The encryption tool then uses this special file to create a mounted volume on your computer that looks like a USB drive and you can store as many files and folders as you want on this new "virtual" drive.
To access the encrypted drive you first have to "mount" it and that requires you to enter a password. Once the drive is mounted all the files become accessible until you later "unmount" the drive. Again, the actual contents of the virtual drive are stored on your hard drive as a single encrypted file which you can copy at will or save using backup service.

Thank you! Veracrypt seems like the way to go.
