So, what happens to the encrypted data after the 1 year expires?

Just read this on their site, This is what happens when it expires. Access to existing safes is still possible.
Safes cannot be modified anymore in any way. Files or folders in the safe cannot be added, modified or removed.
Safe settings cannot be modified.
New safes cannot be created.
Safes cannot be imported.
The shredder cannot be used anymore.

You're probally better of using Veracrypt. Free and doesnt expire.

When launched and the "About" checked, my Steganos Safe v19 (from 4-Oct-2018) does not indicate that it has expired, which makes me hesitate to try today's v21 with 1-year license.

However, v19 continues to have an issue on my Windows 10 Home system which I mentioned in a comment back then, despite the intervening updates to Windows itself: Windows "handles" continuously grow in number until there are so many that my system becomes slow, unstable and then eventually crashes if I do not exit/terminate Steganos. Accordingly, I had disabled the option to launch Steganos with the startup of Windows.

That alone is reason enough for me to try v21 to see if they have corrected this issue (hopefully, if they read and value our comments). Otherwise, although I very rarely launch and use it, over the years Steganos has been an easy-to-use product with a simple/elegant user interface that focuses on doing one job well.

I will be sorry to become subject to the v21 1-year license period restrictions outlined by "Steve" under comment #1.
