I had a TC file sent to me, I installed TC to open it.
I used to use TC a lot; many years ago.
But I remembered that there was some controversy a few years back.
Is there a replacement?
The ability to mount an encrypted filesystem and then send that file to someone is really useful.

It’s my understanding that https://veracrypt.io/en/Downloads.html took over. That said, I’m curious to see what other people recommend.
Veracrypt is what I moved to and works the same for my use
VeraCrypt is recommended by the French government. Cryptomator is fine too but it’s more useful for clouds, not for sharing files.
