1) When a file folder is encrypted, one cannot open a single sub-folder or file without un-encrypting or de-crypting the entire folder contents which can takes well over an hour if, for example, you protect your "My Documents" Folder.
2) Digital Vault fails to recognize all removable drives
3) Customer Service NEVER RESPONDED to my request for help when I completed the customer service request on their web site.
4) DO NOT BUY. I wasted my time & money. Do NOT waste yours.

If you need digital vaults, use deVault instead. In addition to compression and encryption it also has built-in categorization, revision control, easy search and retrieval options, fully automated backup and vault synchronization, email, ftp, printing, scanner and virus scan interfaces. Free for personal use, download direct from ekwintools.com

It won't reliably encrypt and decrypt for me. Attempts to decrypt have resulted in the error message "An unexpected error occurred while Decrypting (filename). Would you like to retry?" Pressing Yes just sends it into infinite loop: the files never get decrypted, and so they are lost. Even when it DOES tell me that it has decrypted successfully and no error messages are generated, the files still do not re-appear in the directory tree, so they remain inaccessible. This is probably the worst software I've ever purchased.

I use StompSoft's Digital Vault for my laptop because of the strong 256 bit blowfish encryption algorithm it uses. I was at a loss for what product to use on my laptop, especially since I take it during air travel, but I bought this product after a friend suggested it. I use this product to encrypt my pictures. I've been very pleased with its' performance just like the other products I use from this manufacturer.

Digital vault is a lifesaver. I store sensitive proprietary information on my computer and everything is protected with Digital Vault. I was throwing a surprise party for my brother and one of the people we invited works for one of my competitors. I found her in my office during the party and she was on my computer. She said she had to check her email, but I think she was sneaking around trying to get proprietary information off my hard drive. Thanks to Digital Vault, she obviously didn't get what she was looking for.
