How to Decrypt an Encrypted File

For recipients of a SecureMint .enc file. Restore the original file using just the password — no install, no account.

1

Get the .enc file ready

Save the .enc file you received from the sender — via email, USB, or a share link download. All work the same.

Drag & Drop

2

Open the Decrypt page

Open the SecureMint Decrypt page (/decrypt). No signup, no app install.

3

Drop the file and enter the password

Drag & drop the .enc file, then type the password you received from the sender.

4

Click 'Decrypt'

Press the button — AES-256-GCM decryption runs in your browser. A progress bar shows the status.

5

Download the original file

On success, a 'Download' button appears. Click to save the original file. If the password is wrong or the file was tampered with, decryption will fail automatically.

Tips

  • 🔑Receive the password through a separate channel (voice, phone, secure memo) — not the same email as the file
  • 🔒Decryption runs entirely in your browser. The file and password never reach any server
  • ⚠️AES-256-GCM detects tampering automatically. If decryption fails despite the correct password, the file may be corrupted
