There are free tools, such as GnuPG and OpenSSL, that can be used to decrypt files. Some open-source tools used to encrypt files may require additional steps for decryption.<\/p>\n<p>For those looking \u200cfor a more secure way to encrypt\u2062 files, there are commercial software solutions, such as BitLocker, that \u200brequire extra measures of authentication. This type\u200b of encryption\u2062 usually requires a \u2062password, \u2063pin number, thumbprint, or other biometric information in \u2064order to open\u200c the file.
