[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 823865, post: 853847"] You can't and they won't unless using tools. There is two cases to consider: Local datas, basically everything you have on your computer and external datas, everything you store outside your computer (cloud backup services, etc...) a- File level: I place them in an encrypted vault ([URL='https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/Home.html'][B]Veracrypt[/B][/URL]). b- System level: i have Win10 Enterprise, so i use Bitlocker to encrypt my data partition. For Win10 Home users Veracrypt can encrypt your partition. I use 3rd party tools to encrypt them ([URL='https://www.gpg4win.org/index.html'][B]PGP4win[/B][/URL]) then upload them to my cloud service ([URL='https://mega.nz/login'][B]Mega[/B][/URL]). Alternatively, you can also zip them with [URL='https://www.7-zip.org/'][B]7-Zip[/B][/URL], which allows you to encrypt your files with a strong algorithm. Those i mentioned work flawlessly to me, even too well, in the past i even lost datas to them because i forgot my password LOL I didn't hear any bypass or massive issues. [/QUOTE]
