USB Encryption Program

[CMLew]

Hi,

I wonder if there is any free USB encryption program compatible with Windows 10?

Tried to search around and saw some of them but they quite look rogue to me especially the "StorageCrypt"

Depending on your version of Windows, BitLocker-To-Go can be used on USB/Portable drives, as well as your OS/Data drives.
(How to encrypt your hard drives in Windows 10, keeping data safe and secure) and without TPM (How to Set Up BitLocker Encryption on Windows)

Unsure if works on USB drives, but there's AxCrypt (Axantum Software AB | AxCrypt | File Encryption Software)

You can try to use Veracrypt, basically turning your whole drive into an encrypted file

I tried Veracrypt using my old thumbdrive. After encrypt and format, my computer can't detect it. So right now I have no idea how to open it.

I will give it a try on some of them

veracrypt is mostly a reworked version of truerypt, so it performs quite well as its ancestor.

I agree. In fact I realised it when I search for guide to encryption, and realised both Veracrypt and Truecrypt have the same interface.
