I'm desperate and now I'm looking for advice.
I would like to install windows 10 on an external hard drive (which I connect to the laptop via USB cable) and lock the entire hard drive with veracryp, so that you always have to enter a password when starting the computer and via USB, i.e. The external hard drive boots and everything is encrypted nicely.
please reply is really important.
You could also use BitLocker. This is already included in Windows 10 and also directly supports the encryption of boot drives and USB hard drives.
You can forget "beautifully encrypted"…
Encryption may not be that easy…
In addition, the consumer (BKA or so) has had various back doors installed…
you only protect yourself from petty criminals… As soon as there's some organization behind it, encryption is over…
if you really need encryption, you would need, for example, N large storage medium that you can always protect against unauthorized access and that you then use as a one-time pad… But then you can always keep your top-secret data on your body wear…
otherwise I would use the Windoze on-board equipment, because they are best adapted… It's just easier to conf-en…
