Espionage 3 / Re: High Sierra
Last post by zsolt - September 28, 2017, 12:50:53 PMHello, I tested it, it seems to be working fine with folders which are on the local/startup volume.
If the folder is on an external volume like USB stick or disk, then there seems to be a problem with locking the folder, it reports constantly that it is in use even if all files are closed, and even if I quit Espionage.
You have to force eject the volume in the finder, this will lock the folder. It seems it is just a logical problem, no data should be damaged during this, but in spite of that, we will surely look into this.
Cheers

Espionage 2 / Re: Progress bar stuck at 10%
Last post by zsolt - September 28, 2017, 12:47:51 PMHello, I think this was a misunderstanding at that time, the progress bar on an encrypted folder shows the percentage of the data present in the disk image in comparison to the capacity of the disk image. If the disk image capacity is 10GB and you have 1GB in the protected folder, then the "progress bar" will be at around 10%.
Note that the disk image capacity and size are two different things, the capacity is the size util which the disk image can "grow" but the size will be similar, just a bit larger, then the total amount of data present in the disk image.
I hope this helps,
Zsolt

Espionage 3 / Re: Help!!! Mac broken..
Last post by zsolt - August 25, 2017, 12:05:53 AMHello,
If you protected only folders on your startup disk then all Espionage related files are in one place, this is your home folder/Library/Application Support/com.taoeffect.Espionage3
This is the folder you have to copy onto the new mac before you launch espionage for the first time (if you launch it before that, it is no big deal, the difference is only that if Espionage does not find this folder on startup, it will take you through setup process and create the folder, then you have to quit Espionage and replace the newly created folder with the one from your old mac)
To reach that folder through finder, you hold the option key and select Library from the Finder's Go menu, once inside Library folder the further subfolders are normally visible.
Considering you launched Espionage already, then there will already be a com.taoeffect.Espionage3 folder. Quit espionage, rename that folder and then copy the one from your backup/old drive over.
Then launch Espionage and your folders should be there,
Let me know how it went,
Zsolt
