Description

Let's assume I encrypt 10,000 files.

I backup these 10,000 to a $location.

I now want to restore a specific file or series of files, except I do not know since the file names are encrypted, meaning I'd need to download the file and check if it's the one I want.

Solution: For each file, store the encrypted file name against the original file name in a .txt file. This way I know meme.gif = 8osdfnijfsjf.c9s

You could also store each directory name in the same way to preserve directory structure but that isn't *as* important imo.

Thanks.
