[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1743102, member: 190607"] As long as you have the Crypt application, and a Macintosh it is designed to run on, that should never be a problem. You are concerned about nothing. If you move to a new Mac in the future, and Crypt will no longer run on it, or a new version isn't backwards compatible, you just decrypt all of your old archives on your old Mac before moving them over to the new machine. There is no such thing as an application that will always be backwards compatible with older file formats. Even from huge companies like Apple or Microsoft. Ask any MacWrite, AppleWorks, or even early Microsoft Word users. If you are afraid to use an application because one day a new version may no longer be backwards compatible, you should probably not be using a personal computer. The abandonment of old file formats, and outdated applications, is constant. Users just convert their files and move on when necessary. There's no need for a fuss. [/QUOTE]
