Works perfectly! - Stars26

Hi thomasmarch,

It works very well for me. You probably just forgot to unckeck "Remember password in my keychain".

In that case, you don't see any asking for a password when you open the DMG file because the Finder is resolving it automatically using your Keychain.

I think that is worth a second try! :)

Good luck with it!

Files Are Encrypted - Disable Keychain Access - nathansheldon

The comment by Stars26 is very relevant. By default, when creating an encrypted image, Mac OS X automatically checks the checkbox to remember the pass phrase in your keychain so you don't have to enter the pass pharase each time you open the DMG file. The encryption pass phrase dialog box is a Mac OS X dialog box, not an Encrypt This 1.01 dialog box, and this default behavior cannot be changed by the Encrypt This 1.01 utility. I hope that helps.
