dcs18 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 TrueCrypt was good, while it lasted — unfortunately, it is no longer being actively developed. :(Personally, was using Steganos in the past — hopefully, someone else might share some better alternatives. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
