Hi,
I'um using SB Pro 7.6.8.0 but that's probably irrelevant for this question.
I'm making only backups of important files in the Cloud (Dropbox). As I want to use encryption, I put a 5 GB Container file into Dropbox, as DB supports differential uploads, which is nice in my case. As the upload only starts after dismounting the container, I'm always mounting/dismouting before/after the Profilerun. As I want to automate it (otherwise regular backups won't be done properly), I have to let SB mount the Container and therefore know the Container-PW.
I found out that the settings are stored within the settings.ini-file in AppData, something like this:
I know, saving PWs is generally not a good idea. But in this case I think it's alright, as this PW is not used anywhere else and should only avoid that someone eventually breaking in the Dropbox-Servers should not be able to decrypt files. IMHO, if one would get full access to my computer, I've got other problems anyhow...
But at least I want to make the file not readable for anyone...
I'm running SB Pro with highest elevated rights, so I thought maybe it is somehow possible to make this file readable only for elevated processes, or even only for SB Pro.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks in advance!
