    Androsa file protection


    In the past I have used Androsa to protect sensitive files. It no longer works I have downloaded and installed several times. Is there another App which will decode the files produced by Androsa?
    Thanks for your help.

    :)

    Androsa file protection

    Hi, it's a very old program (2009).

    I just tried it without doing anything special, and by ignoring the various error msgs, and adding files, I was able to encrypt and decrypt a file.

    I would suggest you try the same, assuming you have the correct password, decrypt your files, then uninstall the program. To completely remove it I recommend Geek Uninstaller (runs the normal uninstaller, then a scan).

    Thanks If I clicked on the Icon it started but with error messages but would not respond. I the started it with the Run command and then it worked. I shall now look for another protection app.
