# lockbox

Drop and lock(encrypt) a folder

## Prerequisites

Python 3.6 and above

## Getting started

Lockbox uses [pyinstaller](https://www.pyinstaller.org/) to create an executable from the python code for different platforms, to download and build the executable, run:

```bash

# clone repo

git clone https://github.com/Haizzz/lockbox.git lockbox_repo

cd lockbox_repo

bash install.sh

```

The executable is now built. Copy this file into your folder and double click to set a password and get started

## Usage

## Notes

- The extension `.locked` is used to tell lockbox is a file is already encrypted

- Files that can't be written to due to insufficient permission **will be skipped**
