Default How to find an encrypted file in a PC!!!


Guys,
I have been using Truecrypt for a long time. It provides encryption which they claim that its almost impossible to break(though nothing is impossible but still they claim so as it will take really long to crack).
However my doubt is, if i have an encrypted file in my pc and i have added an extension of .avi(just to confuse people that its a movie file), can someone find out this encrypted file using any of the windows command or any third party software or any other platform?

of-course yess..
File Analyzer is a software application that can identify the format of a file, with what it was compiled, encrypted, packed, etc.
