I am trying for the first time to use Toucan to encrypt a directory on a travel USB. If it makes a difference, I am dual booting between Windows 7.1 and Linux Mint 20.3 and my problem arises when running Toucan from the USB to try and encrypt directories on the USB.
To begin, I click "secure", then in the LH pane I click on the folder I want to encrypt. In the middle of the screen I click on the green + until the folder I want to encrypt appears in the RH pane.
If I then click on "run" near the top of the screen I get a box asking for the password to decrypt. After matching the passwords I get a listing of all the files with a note "failed to encrypt" then file name then :8 at the end which I assume is an error code but I can't figure out what that means.
I have also tried inserting the variable "location" and I get the same results.
Thanks for any help you can give me. Given how I intend to use the USB (with only portableapps installed, I'd really like to be able to just encrypt my data directories for travel. Thanks
