I have installed Folder Lock7 on my PC and have been using it successfully for a few months.  Suddenly the encrypted folder doesn't have anything in it, but it's size is over 500 MB. How do I get my files back?

My files are missing from my Folder Lock encrypted folder

Encryption is the process of encoding messages or information in such a way that only authorized parties can read it. In an encryption scheme, the intended communication information or message, referred to as plaintext, is encrypted using an encryption algorithm, generating ciphertext that can only be read if decrypted. For technical reasons, an encryption scheme usually uses a pseudo-random encryption key generated by an algorithm. An authorized recipient can easily decrypt the message with the key provided by the originator to recipients, but not to unauthorized interceptors.
