PAE is an encrypted file container format associated with the PowerArchiver software by ConeXware.
See also PAE2, the successor format.
For more information about PowerArchiver and its other formats, see PA (PowerArchiver).
[edit] Identification
Files begin with some ASCII text that starts by naming the encyption algorithm. More research may be needed, but based on analysis of PowerArchiver 2017, there are five possibilities:
| File begins with... | Encryption algorithm |
|---|---|
Blowfish Encrypted File |
Blowfish (128-bit) |
DES Encrypted File |
DES (56-bit) |
TripleDES Encrypted File |
Triple DES (168-bit) |
Rijndael Encrypted File |
Rijndael - AES (128-bit) |
AES256 Encrypted File |
Rijndael - AES (256-bit) |
