Hi the new version of FlashFXP 2.xx build xxx is supposed to support application level password .I tried but couldn't find any option in the menus . May be I haven't looked good enough . But how do I set the application level password for FlashFXP ?? TIA

I suggest searching/looking in the message board or help file first..

From the menu, Sites > Security > Set Password

Thanks a big bigstar

. I have another question . Once I set my application level password, how can I reveal the passwords that I have set for individual sites ?? I think it is possible to reveal the password for the individual sites that I connect to once I set a application level password ?? How do I do this now that I am able to set application level password ??

All this information IS in the help file

Yup I finaly found it

. Thanks Linkster

. But I still have one question in this regard . Now that my .dat files are encrypted, is the backing up of sites.dat file still a vaild thing to do ?? I mean can I still use my encrypted sites.dat in case of a completed fresh install of FlashFXP ?? Can a fresh install of FlashFXP decipher the information hidden within such sites.dat file incase of a complete fresh install ??

That's a really good question...I would hope so, if you enable password protection with the same password again. Might test it out, or I'm sure Bigstar can give us a definitive answer.

Yes it will work. You just need to remember your password.
