If you're looking for a free, open source and audited encryption program, there isn't much choice. The only other one I know of is Diskcryptor. But this has not been audited as far as I know, and it's not maintained frequently. Bitlocker is free (with Win Pro), but not open source and I don't trust Microsoft :) I found this company from Finland called Jetico. They've been in the encryption business for 30 years and have a product called BestCrypt. It's not free nor opensource, but I guess it's better...

I have experienced the same. I have been using Veracrypt for many years and over the years I increased the size of my hard disks a lot, I'm using 18Tb drives right now. And I noticed that every time I increased the drive size, Veracrypt became slower and slower. Write speeds of only 20 - 50 Mbs were not unusual. And the sudden transfer stops for a second or two occurred as well. For me personally, this was not practical anymore and I had to use another encryption program. I hope this gets fixed in...

Dear @idrassi, I get an error that another version is already installed and the installation cannot continue when trying to install the .msi version of 1,26.8, is this normal? Veracrypt (service) is not running in the background. I know I can uninstall the 1.26.7 version, but is this normal behavior? Update: I uninstalled the 1.26.7 version and now I can install the Nightly Build. The installer shows: Welcome to the Veracrypt 1.26.7 Setup Wizard :) The program itself shows the correct version. I've...
