How secure is ProNote in case of file renaming or deletion?
ProNote aims in securing text documents. Hence, it is ensured that your data is safe and cannot be breached or accessed by anyone else. Although, there is no additional security in restricting someone from renaming or deleting your file, your data is always stored in encrypted form and is only accessible by decryption when you open your file in ProNote by entering your password. Thus, your data can only be accessed by you!
When is the password for my document saved?
When saving a new file in Pronote, you have to enter a password which you will use thereon to access your data when you open your document in ProNote. Opening the document in any other editor will only display the encrypted data. So to access your data in Pronote, you need to always enter your password. Every file has its own unique password entered by the user.
Can I create .ppf files using any other text editor?
Although you can create .ppf extension files in other text editors, you cannot secure your files with a password. So you should always create .ppf files in ProNote.
Can I open my file in any other editor?
Yes, you can open .ppf files in other text editors but the data displayed would be in encrypted form. So always open .ppf files in ProNote after entering your password to access your data.
How is ProNote different from other text editors?
Along with securing your text files, ProNote also provides lot of font styling and text editing functionalities which enhances the user experience and makes documenting easy.
