Frequently Asked Questions

What does an authentication error mean?

Almost always a wrong password. It can also mean the file was truncated or modified in transit.

Can you recover files if I forgot the password?

No. By design there is no recovery path, which is exactly what makes the encryption trustworthy.

Does decryption reveal the password strength?

No. Decryption either succeeds with the exact password or fails; it never leaks information about near-misses.
