I started using VeraCrypt to protect my files and I should have sooner

I recently built a new PC with Windows 11 Home and noticed it doesn’t have access to BitLocker, unlike my other machines and my work laptop. This got me thinking about my file security situation, and I realized that if I’m going to encrypt my files for the long term, I need a more reliable solution that works across all my devices. That’s when I discovered VeraCrypt, and it completely changed how I think about file protection.
