For Windows users: BoyCryptor 1.x is fully compatible with EncFS and features a GUI.

BoxCryptor is most definitely not fully compatible with EncFS - it doesn't even support the default filename encoding option that encfs uses.
Some older version supports that. Maybe they changed their license model, but it definitely had support for that in the past.
Yes, it was supported back when they used encfs, but now they've switched to their own internal rewrite which broke compatibility.
Ah, didn't know that. Thanks for the information!
