7zip has strong encryption built in. I found it to be the only very useful x-platform (using Keka on OSX) option when you non-power-users to encrypt some files with a passphrase (symmetric encryption).
And it's opensource.
- LeoPanthera 11y agoIs <archiver of choice> + GPG really a big deal?
- dave2000 11y agoI find that only helps if you know anyone who uses gpg.
- daurnimator 11y agothere are literally dozens of us. dozens!
- cies 11y agoI honestly cannot ask non-power-users to go GPG... And why the extra step? Just a readily available, opensource archiver --7zip-- does the trick with simple symmetric encryption by passphrase.
