Description

Presently a warning shows whenever i try to encrypt some files. I encrypt and upload files to Drive. Because of this warning I've use ES file explorer to encrypt the file because i can decrypt them later after changing lock screen password. So please try to change encryption method that work independent of lockscreen password.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the current file-encryption and screen-lock handling, then determine how encryption can remain usable after a lock-screen password change; done means the warning is no longer required and encrypted files can still be decrypted afterward.
