What is a .EOC file?
An EOC file is a special kind of file that has been locked up tight using a program called EncryptOnClick. This program is like a digital lockbox that uses a super strong lock, known as 256-bit AES encryption, to keep files safe. Imagine you have a secret letter (.DOCX), a note (.TXT), a book (.PDF), or a photo (.JPG) that you don't want anyone else to see. EncryptOnClick can take that file and wrap it up so securely that only someone with the right key (in this case, a password) can open it again. Once locked up, your file changes into an EOC file, which is just a way to say it's been encrypted and is now safe from prying eyes.
To get your original file back from its EOC form, you just need to use EncryptOnClick again, but this time to unlock it. You'll need the password that was used when the file was first locked up. It's like telling EncryptOnClick, "Hey, it's me! Can I have my file back?" And if you have the right password, EncryptOnClick will unwrap your file, turning it back into its original form, whether that's a letter, note, book, or photo.
EncryptOnClick is a handy tool for anyone who wants to keep their files private, whether they're storing them on their computer or sending them over the internet. Since it's a free program, anyone can use it to protect their important files. Just remember, if you lock a file with EncryptOnClick and forget the password, even you won't be able to open it again. So always keep your password somewhere safe!
