TrueCrypt, my beloved. Such an amazing set of features and super easy to use. I so wish there was a modern open-source equivalent with the same intuitive approach. I especially liked the ability to do fancy stuff like disguising data with a false password or using any file as the key.

How about a modern fork of Truecrypt that looks and works exactly like it?

Have you looked at Veracrypt?

Well shoot. It’s my lucky day. And cross platform even! Thanks!
