Ok - this make sense. I added a second SSD drive to my laptop. The folder I wanted to encrypt was on the secondary drive, that's why I was prompted to save it in a folder. I was surprised by the request, because I had never been asked previously. But how you explained it makes sense. So the way I understand it, is that Espionage is only designed to encrypt files on the boot disk, and not external drives.

With ESP2, I had only encrypted files on boot disk, which worked flawlessly. When i try to encrypt on an external disk, I receive this screenshot, asking where I want to save the image location.

Thanks again - Terrill

Thank you Zsolt for your reply and questions. I'll try and explain it a little better. When I click on the icon shortcut to Espionage on the top of the screen, it accepts my password, and opens the app. Next I double click on the sparsebundle file, which prompts me for a password. It used to accept my password (same to unlock the top icon shortcut) and then open the folder. But now it rejects that password. I appreciate your patience in trying to sort this out.

Thank you for the quick response. I know it's impossible to identify, and troubleshoot thousands of users! I actually don't see any folders listed in the Espionage window. My understand is that, it's a new feature, to not show anything listed? I may have gone about encrypting it wrong. I dragged the folder to the blank/open window, and that's when it created the sparsebundle file. By not working, I mean it rejects my password, or the main password I used to unlock Espionage. My understanding is that the new feature on v3 is that it auto generates a complex password for the sparsebundle file. Thank you for your time and feedback.

Before upgrading to vs 3, I unlocked and removed all of the folders from Espionage 2. I upgraded to Maverick, ensured I had the latest version of Espionage 3, and encrypted a file, by dragging the folder to the Espionage window. It created a sparsebundle file. For the first few days, it all worked fine, I would unlock Espionage, and it would unlock my sparsebundle file. I understand that a feature of vs3 generates it's own password for the folder. However now, it no longer works. As I was using Espionage 3 to lock my list of passwords/login, this is particularly disheartening. I've been an avid promoter of Espionage (to my students and fellow designers) since it was first created. Frustrated to see a trusted software app fail to work.
