BitLocker vs Veracrypt
There's also Picocrypt.

I believe i've completely fvcked up my installation of bitwarden
the last thing i would recommend for you is, if you have that CVS file.... it's probably plain text.... so you should encrypt it using a tool like https://github.com/HACKERALERT/Picocrypt and a pass phrase you can remember... write it down somewhere safe, even.... that way your password list is not wide open and readable *if* an intruder gains access to your system...

Encrypt text
Check out Picocrypt, it might be useful to you for this case

7zip AES-256 & File encryption
If you want more choice of encryption algorithms, try Picocrypt. Veracrypt also has more algorithms and has been audited.

Could you tell what are the similarities and differences compared to picocrypt ?

Does xchacha not follow an open standard?
Hey so when looking at xchacha as it seems to be getting more and more popular in terms of adoption for securing files/messages etc. I noticed that when experimenting and testing file encryption with applications like dexios picocrypt and hat.sh that none of the files could be read/understood by other applications. While this doesn't happen with alot of other apps/algos likes aes afaik.
- I Added a CLI

How have you organized your uploaded data knowing that cloud providers might access your files?
Rclone can be used on windows dexios has a wip gui app and borg yeah thats a linux only thing. You could probably use rclone itself though as it has tons of useful features like encryption.

Just so I'm aware, is there a CLI version of this application that was developed?
I'm assuming this software would be just as safe but there seems to be features that Picocrypt has that I can't see if dexios has. Unless someone can correct me with that and they do in fact share the same set of features

Dexios v8.8.0 Release!
Not knowning what Dexios is, I did visit https://github.com/brxken128/dexios and learnt:
-
Dexios - a secure and open source command-line file encryption utility
You may find Dexios on Github, and you can find the full documentation on Github Pages.
-
Dexios - a secure command-line encryption tool.
You may view the project on Github
- Show HN: Dexios, a secure command-line encryption tool (v8.4.1 release)
-
Dexios v8.3.0 Release!
Windows is mostly supported1, and we offer builds for it on Github!
-
Dexios v8.1.0 Release!
This is a huge step up from v7.x.x versions, as encrypted file headers have finally been standardized!. This means your files will always be backwards-compatible, and always supported.
