Using Fingerprint Authentication

File and Folder Encryption
Besides managing passwords for the
password-protected resources, OmniPass
enables you to encrypt and decrypt files and
folders in your system. Encryption is converting
your data to a form in which unauthorized user
cannot read. Once a file is encrypted, it needs
to be decrypted so that the file can be read or
accessed.
To encrypt a file or folder, right-click on it and
selects OmniPass Encrypt File(s). You will be
prompted to authenticate with OmniPass for
the encryption.
If you choose to encrypt a folder, the folder and
all the files in this folder will be encrypted.
Contents in C:\Windows and C:\Program
Files and the folder where OmniPass is
installed cannot be encrypted.
Encrypted file will have the extension “.opf”
whereas the encrypted folder will have the
extension “.opef”.
To decrypt a file or folder, right-click and select
OmniPass Decrypt File(s). You will need to
authenticate to OmniPass for the decryption
process.
