v3.0.1

EzFileEncrypt v3.0.1

Added functionality to decrypt files built in version 2.4.6 and earlier. Please migrate your easy EZFileEncrypt files over to the new format introduced in v3.0.0.

The way the program creates the encryption Keys has been improved now utilizing SHA-256. Please remember these improvements mean absolutely nothing if you have a weak password & the attacker has knowledge of the program and how it works.

It is absolutely true that breaking AES 256-bit encryption would take millions of years, especially when combined with SHA keys. However, this is irrelevant if you have a weak password. An attacker could simply brute force your password if it is weak. Improvements to encryption will make your password harder to crack and reverse-engineer, but this becomes irrelevant if the attacker knows how the program works and has seen the source code. If you have a strong password, it will be nearly impossible to brute force it. The encryption we use cannot be broken if you have a strong password, making it completely impossible to access your files without knowing the exact key.

ALWAYS USE A SECURE PASSWORD!

If you have suggestions of how we could make the program more secure feel free to contact me.
