Design and implement a file encryption software in C programming language that leverages Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to enhance the security of both individual files and folders. The tool should offer users options to encrypt and decrypt file contents seamlessly, with an intuitive interface that supports easy navigation for both beginners and advanced users. Consider incorporating robust error-handling techniques to ensure software usability, stability and resilience. Additionally, the tool should be scalable and flexible enough to support varying file and folder sizes while maintaining optimal encryption and decryption speeds.
