What's the best way to encrypt a USB flash drive and easily decrypt it when plugged into a PC?
>>
Basically, best portable USB flash drive encryption/decryption software.
>>
>>55080567
First, enable whole-drive encryption on it. Then, disable whole-drive encryption.

Now when you plug it into any PC, you won't have to enter a password anymore.
>>
install gentoo
>>
literally any decryption software, I'm pretty sure your pirated windows 7 has bit locker. That'll be gold enough to hide porn from your parents or your GF's nudes
>>
>>55080567
luks and gentoo
>>
>>55080567
Make a Truecrypt(or program similar) portable device ? It won't decrypt right when you plug it in though.

>>55080567
step 1
>own a mac
step 2
>encrypt in disk utility
step 3
>nothing, you're done holy shit that was easy

LUKS with Gnome Disks
>>
>>55080687
Okay, I did that. But after I rebooted it wants me to enter a code before the OS would load.

I made my code really long so I saved it in a text file, but I can't access the file anymore. What do I do?
>>
>>55080723
format the drive, and do it once again with the code in your head.
>>
>>55080732
But all my shit is on there. Wouldn't I lose it all?
>>
>>55080752
yeah you will. But if you dont know the password it's gone anyway.
>>
>>55080784
Can't I just use a password reset disc or something?
>>
>>55080567
VeraCrypt

>>55080567 Use veracrypt, it works on all major os, but not out of the box. You will need to install it first and an administrative priveleges to run it.
OSX built-in encryption is much easier to use, but it's mac only.
>>
>>55080903
Right, VeraCrypt was ruled out for me because of the required administrative privileges. I want something preferably platform agnostic and temporarily mounts a decrypted drive with a password or something similar.

Nothing platform agnostic will work without administrator privileges. Even platform-specific stuff uses administrator privileges implicitly.

You cannot encrypt or decrypt a volume, certainly not MOUNT said volume, as a non-elevated user, on any OS

is kaksoft gud?
