<p>Set a password to encrypt data in a new archive by following these steps:</p>
27
<p>You can encrypt an archive with a password so that only you and those with
28
whom you choose to share the password are able to access it. Note that the
29
password can still be guessed, so for highest security, use a
30
<link href="help:gnome-help/user-goodpassword">good password</link>.</p>

31
<p>You may not be able to type password, because <app>File Roller</app>

it is better to choose file format before

types support encryption, so choose an archive type that can be
