To bundle or package folders and the files in them, many developers need to receive or send encrypted compressed files. Depending on the platform there are several applications that can be required to retreive their contents. Taking the time to swap out of an application and into another one can take time. Aqua Data Studio now has a Compress Tool for quickly compressing and extracting directly from the GUI, regardless of the operating system.
The Compress Tool
The Compression Tool can be accessed via the Application Menu - > Tools - > Compress Tool and provides a GUI for creating/viewing archives, adding and removing files and encrypting their contents. Encryption schemes for 128, 192 and 256-Bit AES Encryption are supported, allowing password protection for compressed files. The Compress Tool functions like many commonly available Zip and archive utilities, presenting file and archive contents and properties in a grid with Name, Type, Path, Modified, Size, Packed, Ratio and CRC. Files can be Opened, Extracted, Extracted to Archive, and Encrypted. Keyboard Shortcuts for the Compression Tool are available with File->Options->Key Mappings->Compression Tool

How to create an archive and encrypt it
First, select items you want in the archive. Right click on them and choose Compress from the context menu. Give the file a name and click OK. Once the archive is created, double click it within the Files Browser to view its contents in the Compress Tool. Once you see its contents in the list, click the Encrypt icon at the top of the list view in the toolbar. Select the encryption scheme and enter the desired password, select a new name and destination (if needed) and click OK.
