LockCrypt is an account, password and secure data manager. High strength encryption protects your data is protected by a password, so only you can see it.
Installation
With Installer
- Run the installer.
- Launch LockCrypt using the start menu shortcut.
Without Installer
- Extract the files from the archive to a suitable directory.
- Launch the program by running LockCrypt.exe.
Upgrading
From LockCrypt 3.x or above
Before upgrading from an earlier version, you should export your database by clicking File->Save As->XML File, then choosing No Encryption. If necessary, you can re-import by choosing File->Open->XML File. This step is optional unless specified in the release notes.
Upgrading from LockCrypt 2.x (Java)
Export your database from LockCrypt 2.x by clicking File->Export To->XML or SQLite Database (preferrably both, just incase). Install the latest version of LockCrypt, then click File->Open->Legacy XML File or Legacy Database.
Support
Documentation for LockCrypt is available online at the online wiki and from the application using Help->Help Contents.
If LockCrypt crashes when you run it, there's a good chance you don'w have the latest version of the Microsoft .NET Framework. Download it and try again.
If you have any problems with installation, ideas for new features or bugs to report, we'd love to hear from you at the forums, located at http://forums.lime49.com/.
