# Encrypted Nextcloud Portable Client This is a portable Nextcloud client that runs on Windows. At starttime a Batch file is executed and will prompt you for a password. On first run this will set your password to encrypt the Nextcloud client configuration (host, user, password) and the data stored in your portable `Documents` folder. ## Install 1. Install 'nextcloudPortable_X.X-X.paf.exe' with PortableApps Plateform 2. Run Nextcloud 3. Enter a password 4. Setup nextcloud 5. Resume sync ## Used software ### Encrypted ownCloud Portable Client https://github.com/BennyLi/encryptedOwnCloudPortableClient. Thanks to the author. ### Nextcloud Currently packaged is the Nextcloud client version 2.3.3 from https://nextcloud.com/install/#install-clients. ### 7-Zip For encrypted packaging a 7za.exe is included. This is the official portable one in version 16.04 from http://www.7-zip.org/download.html. If you ask yourself if 7-Zip is secure enough, please reefer to http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/29375/is-7-zips-aes-encryption-just-as-secure-as-truecrypts-version. ### Bat To Exe Converter To convert the start.bat to .exe I used Bat To Exe Converter version 2.2.0.0 from http://www.f2ko.de/en/b2e.php. Currently I need an .exe file because the PortableApps Launcher cannot handle .bat files with the [WaitForEXEN](http://portableapps.com/manuals/PortableApps.comLauncher/ref/launcher.ini/launch.html#waitforexen) setting.
