WinRAR compression software is a powerful compression and decompression software, so how does WinRAR compression software protect private files? Some friends may not know it yet. Below, the editor will share with you how WinRAR protects private files.
First, select the file (folder) to be “encrypted” and select “Add to compressed file (A)…”.
Then, change the suffix of the compressed file name (such as .xlsx, .docx, .exe, etc.), then click "OK" and "Encryption" is completed.
Next, try double-clicking the compressed file (here using .xlsx as an example), but it cannot be opened normally...
Then, right-click on the selected file and select "Open with" WinRAR to open it normally.
Finally, be careful not to change the suffix to .txt or you will be exposed.
