MLCrypt

MLCrypt is a handy console application that lets you encrypt and decrypt text using the Blowfish algorithm in CBC mode. It also comes with a secure 448-bit MD5-salted password and key-stretched SHA-256 password. Pretty cool, right?

Easy to Use Command-Line Options

You don’t need to be a tech wizard to use MLCrypt! It has simple command-line options that even beginners can handle. Just keep in mind that it only supports plain text documents.

No Installation Needed!

The best part? You won’t have to go through an annoying installation process! Just copy the downloaded files anywhere on your computer, and you can launch MLCrypt directly without any setup.

Use It Anywhere!

If you want, you can even keep a copy on a USB flash drive. This way, you can use it on any PC without needing to install anything—perfect for when you're on the go and need to encrypt or decrypt text quickly.

How to Use MLCrypt

To get started with MLCrypt, just open up a Command Prompt window. Type in the file name and extension like this: input.txt output.txt -e | -d. Here’s what each part means:

• You need to put the name of your document (with .txt) that you want to encrypt.


• Add an output name (also .txt) for the new document that will hold your encrypted text.


• The -e stands for encryption, while -d is for decryption.

Overwrite Permissions

If the output file already exists, don’t worry—MLCrypt will ask if it's okay to overwrite it. Just make sure both input and output files are in the same folder as the program; otherwise, you'll need to set their paths manually.

Password Security

During encryption, you'll be prompted to enter and confirm your password. No peeking allowed! The password won’t show up on-screen in case someone is snooping around. But rest assured, the program recognizes your key!

Create Strong Passwords

For extra security, it's smart to come up with a strong password made from random upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols. This makes it super tough for anyone trying to crack it using brute force methods.

Smooth Performance on Windows 10

We tested MLCrypt on Windows 10, and let me tell you—it worked like a charm! It zipped through encrypting and decrypting text documents quickly while barely touching system resources. With its easy commands, anyone looking for a solid text encryption tool can jump right in!
