Hoooly carp, Locate Encrypted File is a game changer! I finally finally FINALLY can set the right folders on OneDrive to always be in my computer while keeping the huge ones on the cloud. THANK YOU!

“locate encrypted file” is a great extension, you could also extend it with “locate dectypted file” in future versions.

how much faster is AES-GCM? Is it worth re-encrypting the vault?

I looked at the speed of encryption and decryption (windows desktop app 1.7, FUSE), in fact I could see a significant speedup with the new beta version in an existing vault.

What I don’t understand: I noticed a slowdown in a newly created vault, I created 1 GB files with random content and tried it several times, encrypting and decrypting in an existing vault was faster than with the 1.6.17 version , but again it was noticeably slower in the new vault, roughly the same as with the 1.6.17 version.

add:
“locate encrypted file” to not work in my win10 system, not with beta1 and also not with beta2.

I just downloaded the 1.7.0-beta3 from GitHub for Mac (M1 ARM). I would like to test the new volume type FUSE-T. But this type does not appear in the settings. Only possibilities: WebDAV (Apple Script) and WebDAV (HTTP Adress):

Are any other settings necessary to be able to use the new volume type?

You have to download and install FUSE-T from its home page: https://www.fuse-t.org/
