I was testing whether the save_data(data, filename, *password) would prevent me from deleting the file or uploaded the file without using the password. The test was to save a data_file as a json.file without the password, then read it using VScode, and then saving one with a password to see if it matter when you loaded or try to read it in VScode.
This was the results:
Using No password on the save_data.json file
1) The file could be deleted, and loaded in RPG in a Box, using a script, with no issues.
2) The file could be open in VScode and could be read with no issues.
Using a Password on the save.data.json file
1) The file still could be deleted and loaded without requiring any password input.
2) The file could Not be open properly in VScode, since the password encrypted the file.
Conclusion:
The save_data(data, filename, *password) appears to work to encrypt data file externally, however it did not require any password input internally when trying to load the data file without using a password.
