• Launch the main app: manage_encryption_key.py
  • Create an encryption key
    • This will create a .env file in the root of the directory
    • Do not rename/move this file, it's how the python-dotenv finds the key for encrypting/decrypting
  • Encrypt files
    • By default the script saves binary files to the Data folder
    • This can be updated using the Settings option
  • Decrypt files
    • Decrypt your binary files using the .env file
