The accumulation of all these files has made me wonder once again about encrypting it all.
Last year, I covered another encryption possibility -Truecrypt.
But to me, that’s a bit messy.
If the host computer doesn’t give you administrator rights then you would be totally screwed.
You would have a USB encryption system that even keepsyouout!
Not quite what I am looking for.
It’s both simple and effective - the two watchwords I live by when searching for software.
There’s absolutely no need to keep it on your gear once the initial USB installation has been done.
after you grab installed it on your system, it’s time to quickly set up your drive.
You will then be asked for some details including a password.
The encryption process will then begin but you have to be patient.
On my USB stick, it took close to 15 minutes for the encryption to be set up.
So don’t get frustrated and start click click clicking around wondering what’s going on.
Just leave it to do its thing.
This is the program needed to launch the secret partition which now exists.
When you are finished, just go back to the above window and choose “disconnect”.
This then closes the partition and removes it from the Windows Explorer drive.
