Introduction to Encryptex v2.0.5

Introduction

Welcome to the Encryptex Pro Version 2.0.5 Help System. In this section we will be covering the following topics:

Properly Installing Encryptex

This subsection will cover the most important thing to remember when installing Encryptex Pro v2.0.5. If you're having technical difficulties with Encryptex and you think your problems stem from making some changes to the default installation, try reinstalling Encryptex and change nothing during set-up time.

The number one cause of problems when running Encryptex is changing the default folder in which Encryptex Pro v2.0.5 is installed to. It is very important not to change the path c:\ectv20 when installing. Because of security reasons, Encryptex has been coded to work properly out of the previously stated folder only.

If you need further assistance with troubleshooting errors with Encryptex Pro v2.0.5, please refer to the Troubleshooting Guide found in the main menu of our help system.

Getting Started with Encryptex

When you run Encryptex, you are first prompted to enter your access password. The default password for Encryptex is exactly as shown: factory

Then press the "Enter" key on your keyboard or click the "Enter" button.

You'll need to enter your password each time you launch Encryptex. This safety measure restricts access to your copy of Encryptex, so that noone other than yourself may begin encrypting data on your hard drive, or accessing any of the other utilities within the Encryptex Pro v2.0.5 suite.

**NOTE** The first thing you should do after launching Encryptex for the first time is to change your access password. You can find instructions for this process in the next section of the help system main menu.

Additional Information

Finally, here is some important additional information about the functionality of Encryptex Pro v2.0.5:

You may run all of the utilities at once without worry. To switch between any of the utilities at any given time while running multiple utilities, simply press and hold the "ALT" key and press the "TAB" key to switch between the utilities. This is a built-in features of Microsoft Windows and you may already be familiar with this function.
While running multiple utilities, any information entered within any given utility remains intact when you switch between utilities. This means you may be writing a letter in the email utility and chatting securely at the same time.
If you minimize the Encryptex Pro v2.0.5 toolbar, you may restore it by either using the "ALT+TAB" feature previously described, or by simply clicking on it from the taskbar.
If you're confused about a feature or function, don't panic. Instead, use the help system provided for you. The answers to your questions will most certainly be found within our help documentation or the user's manual.
Included with Encryptex Pro v2.0.5 is a client application that you may send to business associates, family members, or friends. This client application will allow you to chat with them, and/or allow these people to decrypt the data you send them, provided they have the key the data was encrypted with, all without owning a copy of Encryptex Pro v2.0.5. This client application can be found in your c:\ectv20 folder. The filename is ECT2free.exe. This file can be sent via email, or copied to a diskette and mailed. To install the client, the user must simply double-click on the file and the installation begins.
