Linux Encryption / Windows Decryption?

Post by nnhe »

If I encrypt a file from a linux command-line with a key file, can I decrypt it using a windows GUI with a password?

If you use aescrypt_keygen to generate the file, then yes. Just open the generated file in Windows Notepad, for example: that is the password.
