What else can I help you with?
Is encryption available with ext2 file type?
No. Most filesystems on Linux do not have encryption builtin, though you can have an ecryptfs-formatted partition on certain distributions that offer to encrypt your home folder. Most other filesystems while unencrypted, can rely on using LUKS as an encryption layer.
What is the difference between Linux and Windows file systems?
Windows uses 4 file systems: FAT, NTFS, exFAT, and ReFS. "Linux" supports dozens of file systems, there are too many to mention. The differences between them are massive and specific to the file system in question. For a proper answer you need to read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system . It is incorrect to say "the Linux file system is faster than Windows" because it's dependent on the data, and of course because there is no "Linux file system." It's incorrect to say "The Linux filesystem is more/less secure than the Windows file system" for the same reason. Drive encryption is available in both Windows and Linux. To the average user, there is no functional difference.
What is the oldest Linux file system?
The first file system Linux supported was the MINIX file system.
What is file manager in Linux?
There is no set file manager in linux. Examples of Linux file managers include but: Nautilus (GNOME) Thunar (XFCE) Dolphin (KDE)
Why is encryption available in the NTFS file system and not in the FAT32 file system?
Encryption is available in the NTFS file system because it supports advanced security features, including file permissions and access control, which are essential for managing encrypted data. NTFS is designed for use in environments requiring high security and data integrity, while FAT32 is a simpler file system that lacks these advanced features. Consequently, FAT32 does not provide the necessary infrastructure to implement encryption effectively.
What are the advantages of file encryption?
Security.
What are the methods of file security?
Encryption is the best.
How you can decrypt the file?
Only with the proper Encryption key, without that it's lost forever. Encryption uses a different algorithm every time, and only the key generated at the time of encryption can decrypt that file.
What is crypto-encryption?

What is one of the most effective file encryption software?
One of the most effective file encryption software available online is Sophos Free Encryption. It is based off their pay to use program SafeGuard PrivateCrypto.
What can you do so that you can use file and folder encryption with a volume using the FAT file system?
Nothing. The FAT file system simply does not support the features needed for file/folder encryption. You'll have to convert the volume to NTFS.
What is involved in file encryption?
File encryption utilizes passwords and strings of digits to ensure file safety and security. It is meant to ensure that data cannot be compromised. There are many ways of encrypting files.
