How to easily encrypt files on an Android phone – and the free app I use to do it

File encryption is important for mobile security, allowing users to encrypt files for secure access and sharing. The OpenKeyChain app simplifies this process for Android users by utilizing public key encryption, which involves a private key on the recipient's device and a public key shared for sending encrypted files. To get started, users need an Android device and the OpenKeyChain app. They must create their own key and can import public keys from others. Files can be encrypted for other users or stored securely on the device or Google Drive. Encrypted files have a .gpg extension, and users can disguise them for added security. The decryption process involves selecting the encrypted file within the app.

I just heard about this free Windows 11 customization app despite it having 42 million downloads

ExplorerPatcher is a free and open-source application that has over 42 million downloads and 32,200 stars on GitHub. It aims to restore legacy Windows shell components in Windows 11, allowing users to manage settings more comfortably. The app is compatible with both x86-64 Windows and Windows on ARM. Users can revert the Windows 11 taskbar to its Windows 10 design, disable the Windows 11 context menu, and restore the control ribbon in File Explorer. ExplorerPatcher offers additional features such as improved multi-display taskbar support and customizable settings. It includes preset configurations like the "Classic Windows 10" option and allows for custom configurations to be saved and shared. Despite its popularity, ExplorerPatcher is not widely recognized due to security warnings from Windows, which flag it as a potential threat, and potential disruptions following major Windows updates.

The classic Xenosaga series is finally making its PC debut, but don’t get too excited because it’s a 2004 mobile game port

Xenosaga: Pied Piper, originally launched in 2004 for Vodafone mobile phones, will debut on PC via Steam. This title has never been released outside of Japan and was designed for flip phones.

The exact release date is not specified, and the port will not include modern quality-of-life enhancements or an English translation. Despite its mobile origins, the game's art style is noted for its effective scaling. Nintendo currently holds the rights to the Xeno series, making it unlikely for other Xenosaga titles to be released on PC soon.
