Can't open encrypted files via Boxcryptor
W11: not possible anymore to open encrypted files via good (old) boxcryptor.
no matter which filetype and when it was last changed.
Was possible without any problems before the update for the last 8+years
Installing non beta 185 doesn't solve this.
Moving the encrypted folder out of dropbox everything is fine again.
Maybe related to problem in mac, since there is no preview of files either https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-desktop-client-builds/Beta-Build-186-3-6103/td-p/722282

Sorry for resurrecting such an old thread: But Martin F.21 - was there ever a fix to this? I'm having the exact same issue! Opening the old boxcryptor-container out of dropbox was just not possible - simply copying the container to another location made it possible again. It seems like dropbox on Windows 11 somehow messes up the synched file somehow
