What is a .CRYPTED file?
A .CRYPTED file is a type of encrypted file that is created by a software program called WinOptimizer, which is used to maintain and optimize computers that run on the Windows operating system. The content of a .CRYPTED file is secured so that it cannot be read or accessed without the correct password. This file contains a version of another file that has been encrypted for security purposes.
To open a .CRYPTED file, you need to use the Ashampoo WinOptimizer program. This is the same program that was used to create and encrypt the file. When you want to access the contents of a .CRYPTED file, you must use WinOptimizer and provide the password that was originally used to encrypt the file. Once the correct password is entered, WinOptimizer can decrypt the file, turning it back into its original, accessible form.
