You're joking, right? I mean, what good is encrypting a file if you have a program which can open the file anyway, without a password?

Or is that a misinterpretation of your question? Do you mean that you don't like the fact that Resco makes a duplicate when decrypting, and asks if you wish to delete the original or not? Does this function bother you? Why? I mean, if a file were only 'encrypted' in the sense that opening it was somehow blocked without password access, the non-scrambled contents might more easily be ferreted out by clever hackers. Merely blocking access to a file isn't really secure. Garbling it up into nonsense only the encryption program itself can dechipher is a lot more effective, in my opinion. And if it's a mangled mess, then of course a copy has to be made to un-mess it!
