Convert a standard .pcv into a self-contained, self-decrypting/extracting .html file for ultimate portability!
If you don't have Go installed, download it from here or install it from your package manager. Next:
go install github.com/Picocrypt/Web-SFX/picocrypt-sfx@latest
You should now be able to run picocrypt-sfx
. If not, run export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin
and try again.
If you don't want to install Go, compiled executables are available in Releases.
Only use this tool on volumes smaller than 1 GiB that use no advanced features or keyfiles.
picocrypt-sfx secret.txt.pcv
A secret.txt.pcv.html
will be created which embeds the volume. Always test the .html file after creation!
- Secure file sharing: easily share encrypted files to others without needing them to download software (that they may not trust or know how to use) on their end.
- Long-term file storage: the decryption module is bundled with the volume data into a single .html file, meaning everything you need to access your encrypted files is present and self-contained (works offline). Due to the stable and standardized nature of the web and WebAssembly, this single .html file will be able to decrypt your files on any platform with any modern browser indefinitely unless web browsers stop existing.
