FileTransformer 2.0.0

Changelog

• Migrated code to .NET 5.0
• Design overhaul.
• Added a top menu bar with an option to check for updates and an "About" section.
• Added an option to select multiple files at once.
• Added an option to choose a custom extension for transformed files and removed previous random extension.
• Switched encryption method from plain XOR to the far more secure AES-GCM algorithm.
• Encrypting transformed files is no longer optional (using a default encryption key in case no key is chosen).
• File hash verification (and with that file footer) were removed, now using AES-GCM's authentication instead.
• Added a file signature for transformed files to easily identify whether chosen files are valid.
• Code optimization and better error handling.

BUGFIXES:

• Trying to restore an invalid file / using a wrong decryption key causes the program to crash.
• Trying to read a file that's already open by a different program / service causes the program to crash.

Notes

• FileTransformer-2.0.0.zip is .NET 5.0 dependent, which means it requires .NET 5 runtime to be installed on the computer to run.
  FileTransformer-2.0.0.Self-Contained.zip is self-contained and can run without the .NET 5 runtime (at the cost of a much larger file-size).
