      If you only planning on using Windows, why not Bitlocker?

        It isn't just Windows users that would be using it.

          VeraCrypt I thought was defunct,

          VeraCrypt was spun off the last open source version of TrueCrypt that was killed off suddenly.

            What external drive, cross platform encryption solutions are you using?

            From the OP.

              Ah that's what it was TrueCrypt.

              Thanks!

                Does Veracrypt not fit the bill?

                  Just looking for alternatives to not limit my options.

                      I forgot about that. And still a stupid limitation.

                        I use Veracrypt.

                        It's compatible with TrueCrypt but It uses his own encryption mode by default.
