Excellent! The features of this program are more than sufficient for my needs. Combined with TrueCrypt there's little more to ask for.

1.6.4.4 2008-05-13 Release of 1.6b4.3. 1.6b4.3 2008-04-27 Bug fixes, see change notes. 1.6b4.2 2008-04-10 Windows Vista has introduced a brilliant new feature in the name of security (sic!) which causes the address space of processes to be randomly assigned. This caused a latent bug to surface, causing random crashes and taskbar freezes. Another latent bug caused Vista to silently kill the process instead of showing it's exception dialog. In the end a rather major edit with lots of cleanup as a result. 1.6.4.1 2008-03-17 Fixed a major issue with not using provided passphrase when encrypting in batch files via the command line. 1.6.4 2008-03-07 Final release of the changes in 1.6b3.1 through 1.6b.3.3 plus a few minor changes. 1.6b3.3 2008-02-07 Include AxCrypt2Go beta in the distribution. Enable use of Unicode filenames (legacy versions will use translated name). 1.6b3.2 2008-01-29 Further changes to make it more Vista-aware. The largest change is re-compilation as a full Unicode application and dropping support for Windows 95, 98, ME and NT. We're no open for translations to more languages, as we're not limited in the texts. Filenames are still stored in Ansi only, will be fixed in next version. 1.6b3.1 2008-01-08 Minor bugfixes, but major upgrade of library code and development- environment to Visual Studio 2005. Vista support in installer and code. Fix of problem with networked folders in Windows XP after Microsoft security update.

I am currently using version 1.6.3 so this speaks about that. I have been using Axcrypt for single file encryption several years now, always with good results. Something I don't see in the homepage of Axcrypt is a version changes list. It appears that all of the features listed in 1.6.4 I already have in 1.6.3. Perhaps the release is correcting bugs, although I have never encountered any.

Very solid and reliable. It easily covers the basics of file encryption without all the overhead like you get from PGP these days.
