Encryption program for files that uses Salsa20, ChaCha20 or HC-256 with a 256-bit key. The program creates an encrypted (password protected) copy of any file and the program can later be used to decrypt (restore) the original file.

You have to run AS-File Crypt as Administrator in order to add/update or remove the integration feature. This can be done by right-clicking on the EXE file. (Note: When you make a larger Windows upgrade, this integration may be cleared, then you need to add it again.)
The only thing that is not portable is the integration feature, but this has to be activated manually. The integration feature writes to the registry (the key "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT").
