Hi Nicco.

with open(in_filename, 'rb') as infile:
        with open(out_filename, 'wb') as outfile:

is used to read plain text, write encrypted
and

 with open(in_filename, 'rb') as infile:
for decrypt.

Google searching suggested that - but I was already using it.
  Not sure what else affects it?

regards
