VeraCrypt: The best free application for creating and encrypting hard drives or SSDs

read

This is the best free disk creation and encryption software from IDRIX based on TrueCrypt 7.1a. It adds improved security to the algorithms used to encrypt systems and partitions, which makes it immune to new developments in attacks. It also solves many vulnerabilities and security issues found in TrueCrypt. This enhanced security adds some delay ONLY to the opening of the encrypted partitions without further effect on the performance of the application during the use phase. How to use it is not very simple, and we describe it in detail below. Before you start, press Settings and select Greek menu.

STEPS

1

To create your encrypted partition, after running the application select the letter of the disk you want your disk to have and select the type of disk, if you are a beginner leave the first option.

2

Select the type of volume you want to create. We, for the needs of the test, randomly chose the first one.

3

Click the file selection button and select a path that leads to the disk, part of which you will encrypt while giving a name and click next.

4

Select the encryption level and click next.

5

Select your disk size now and click next.

6

Enter your password, but write it down somewhere to remember it.

7

Finally, select how to format your disk, follow the instructions in the application panel, and click Format to format your disk.

But now let's see how we can open our encrypted Partitions

1

To open an encrypted disk that we created after running the application, select a file option, find the file you have created and then press load.

2

Enter your password, press ok and wait a few seconds for the disc to open.

3

You are now ready to manage it normally as you do with the rest of your storage media. Finally, if you want to close it, click on the uninstall button.
