Q: I have files with names ending in '_1.pf' and '_2.pf', etc. and '_1_1.pf' and '_1_2.pf, etc. Why do these file names contain this numbering scheme? A: The first time a file is encrypted, '.pf' is added to the original file name. If the original file is encrypted again in the same location as the original encrypted file, the new file name will end with '_1.pf'. If the '1.pf' file is encrypted once more, the file name will end with '_1_1.pf'. For example: a folder contains a file name 'file.doc'. When 'file.doc' is encrypted the new file is named 'file.doc.pf'. If 'file.doc.pf' is encrypted, the new file is named 'file.doc_1.pf'. If you then encrypt 'file.doc_1.pf', the new file is named 'file.doc_1_1.pf'. If you decrypt 'file.doc_1_1.pf', the new file is named 'file.doc_1_2.pf'. If you decrypt 'file.doc_1_2.pf', the new file name is 'file.doc_2.pf'. Decrypt 'file.doc_2.pf' and you get 'file_1.doc'.
