## A - Available Settings

- Password Vault
  - Algorithm: Encryption algorithm for the Password Vault.
  - Password List Font Size: Text size for item names and passwords in the password list.
  - Auto Backup Folder: If enabled, Password Vault data is exported (as PWV_AutoBackup.pwv) to the chosen folder upon every content change. Can be used to back up to cloud storage, for example.
  - Lock Screen: Lock the Password Vault screen when the application goes to the background (is "minimized").

- Text Encryptor
  - Algorithm: Encryption algorithm for the Text Encryptor.
  - Font Size: Text size in the unencrypted/encrypted text fields.
  - Final Encoding: Output text encoding. Available options: Base64 (PTE default), Base32 (RFC 4648), Numbers Only (0-9).
  - Add Space: Add a space after every Nth character in encoded texts.
  - Hide Info Messages: Hide less important pop-up messages (e.g., "message was copied to...").
  - Lock Screen: Lock the Text Encryptor screen when the application goes to the background (is "minimized").

- File Encryptor
  - Algorithm: Encryption algorithm for the File Encryptor.
  - Multiple File Selection: (PRO version only) - Activate/deactivate multiple file selection mode (batch processing).
  - Encrypted Files Destination:
    Same as Source: Output files are placed in the same directory as the input files.
    Predefined Location: Use the "Custom Directories" button (top-left corner - ) in the File Encryptor to set the location (Set Current Dir as... → Encrypted File Directory).
    Ask: The app will ask for the output file location before every encryption process.
  - Decrypted Files Destination: Same options as "Encrypted Files Destination" above.
  - Wipe Source After Encryption: Delete or wipe (if possible in the current location) source files automatically after encryption. Wiping is not possible in SAF mode (button or ).
  - Delete .enc File After Decryption: Delete the source file (encrypted .enc file) automatically after decryption.
  - Show .enc File(s) Replace Warning: Show a "continue/cancel" dialog when .enc file(s) with the same name already exist.
  - Thumbnail Size: Set the size of image thumbnails or disable them entirely.
  - Lock Screen: Lock the File Encryptor screen when the application goes to the background (is "minimized"); requires the session password to be set.

- Common Settings
  - Import/Export Path: The application's default import/export directory.
  - Application Launch Protection: Ask for authentication every time the application starts. This password is used only for launch authentication and does not affect encryption features or lock screen features. It is primarily intended to protect application settings. Only a derivative (output of complex KDF functions) of the authentication password is stored; however, it is not recommended to use the same password for encryption purposes.
  - Prevent Screenshot Taking: Treat the window content as secure, preventing it from appearing in screenshots. This option is available on Android 4.4 or later. An application restart is required.
  - Allow Unicode Passwords: By default, only ASCII characters 32-126 are allowed for passwords (for compatibility, as most devices/systems have keyboards supporting these). If you enable "Unicode Passwords," you can use any character your keyboard supports.
  - Show Sub-Applications Exit Dialog: Confirm returning to the main menu (only when using the "Back" button; direct "Main Menu" buttons are not affected).
  - Allow External Autofill: Allow external applications (like password managers) to fill in text fields inside SSE. This option is available on Android 8.0 or later.
  - Clear Clipboard on Exit: When leaving the application using the Exit button, automatically start the system clipboard cleaner. Exiting via the "Back" button does not trigger this function.
