(question) Encrypting a single file

[Jason Carson]

Just a word of warning. If all your important information is in one file
and your hard drive crashes you could lose everything.

If possible keep the file on two computers that way if one computer fails
you won't lose all your information.

Personally I have all my important files stored on two computers and on a
USB flash drive.
