Given an encrypted file, can the computer which has been used for producing it be traced?
No, the program uses or stores no system-specific information. Kryptel creates strange files… If you turn on the option ‘Show hidden files’ in your file manager, you might see strange files in the directory where encryption occurs with names looking like 8AB59B31820F0000-6F060000-4D75603B. Those files are produced by the shredder. File shredding is a lengthy process, and in order to avoid name conflicts, the shredder renames the files in the shredding queue before processing. The strange names you see in the directory list are temporary names of the files being shredded. Simply ignore them; they will disappear when the shredder finishes processing.
