There are many users who think that adding a password to the software will improve FFS security. There is no problem that there are those who disagree with it, so I suggested doing it as an option, and those who do not want it should not use it. But this option of password protection will exist for ...

Thanks for the tips on how to encrypt, but that's not what I asked for. I only ask the developers for one thing: password protection when entering the software. Any ideas to do: another user account, use BitLocker, etc. You can say the same about not protecting an encrypted drive or Google Drive wit...

All what I asked is just add a password option when starting the software. That's all. Everyone admits this improves data security.

I don't understand why the people here make a big deal of it Very simple, just make a password option when entering the software. And also encrypt the file where the passwords are stored accessing drives as well as Google Drive, etc. that's it. It maintains access to drives and Google Drive. If some...

This is very common in software that has access to accounts and drives such as FFS, even though the computer user's account also has a password. Than...

This will close a significant security breach to Google Drive or any cloud service and even a local drive that is accessed through a password.

hi I really enjoy using the software I think it is necessary to make an option to protect FFS when running the software by password. This is because if you allow the software to log into a Google Drive account, for example, a malicious user can exploit it for negative purposes, which means I think a...
