Hi all
I have two queries.
First I downloaded the win 64bit file but after install the program is called AESCrypt32.exe ?
and when i open this I get an error 'Useage: aescrypt32 [/d]/e] filename....

any ideas what I have done wrong please?

You never call "AESCrypt32.exe" directly. That's only there to support the use where you double-click on a file with the .aes extension.

To encrypt or decrypt files in Windows, right-click on the file you want to encrypt or decrypt. You will see a menu option that says "AES Encrypt" or "AES Decrypt". Select the option and then you will be prompted to enter your password.

If you wish to use the command-line version of AES Crypt, the program is called "aescrypt.exe" and has the same syntax as the Linux version. (It actually is the Linux version just ported to Windows.)
