Espionage 3 / Re: Can't delete files

Last post by zsolt - February 08, 2024, 06:48:38 AM

Hello Stevens, in it's essence, Espionage is just administering MacOS disk images. It creates them, encrypts them, assign name and password and manipulate the mountpoint for them, but at it's core, the data is kept in MacOS encrypted disk image. So the error you are describing is an error the disk image is returning and _should_ nothing to do with Espionage. I know this does not make your life any better, but just to be clear on this.
It is probably some kind of a permission issue. Does the same happen when you try to copy a file out of the protected folder, say, you drag a file from the protected folder into a regular folder, for example into your  Documents folder?

Thanks
Zsolt

Espionage 3 / Can't delete files

Last post by stevens - February 07, 2024, 02:07:32 PM

I'm using Espionage 3.7.1 on a Mac running OS 11.7.1.
I get an error message when I try to delete a file I no longer want in a protected folder. This happens when the folder is unlocked.
Here is the message: The operation can't be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8062).
This happens when I try to delete using a right click or by dragging to the trash icon.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks, zsolt. I suspected that was the solution. Glad to know it will mount once moved externally.

Hello, the problem is that you cannot encrypt a folder on an external volume. What you can do is move the folder to the boot drive, encrypt it and then move the resulting disk image onto the external volume. The mountpoint folder can stay on the internal drive or you can move that one too to the external.
It is only the encryption process which does not work. Once encrypted, the folder will work normally even if it is on the external volume.
If you need assistance with that, please let me know.

Espionage works fine on Sonoma and M-series processors. I think there might be some issue with encrypting folders on external drives that @zsolt can describe in greater detail.

Espionage 3 / Sonoma Compatibility

I see that Espionage 3.7.3 is compatible with Apple Silicon M1 and Big Sur, but nothing about later versions. Is it compatible with Apple Silicon M2 and Sonoma?

Espionage 3 / Re: Serious restore folder pro...

Excellent, thanks for the feedback.
Now, we had these before, failed restores, but we could not nail the reason for it, it is probably a permission issue but we are not sure. What we have on the to do list, though, is to stop moving the disk image into trash, and removing the folder from Espionage even if the restore fails. We will first complete the restore and if we have it confirmed as sucesfull, then we will do the cleanup.
It will be implemented in one of the future versions, till then, you will have to bear with me :-)
Thanks for your patience and sorry for the inconvenience.
Cheers
Zsolt
