The official TrueCrypt domain moved back to again at the beginning of May 2005, and the SourceForge website redirects to there.Īdded hidden volume support for containers. Version released on, which became the official TrueCrypt domain. Added RIPEMD-160, size of a volume was no longer limited to 2048 GB, ability to create NTFS volumes. This release was made under original E4M license. New release due to licensing issues relating to the GNU General Public License. Release made under the GNU General Public License, and signed as the TrueCrypt Foundation – previous versions were signed by TrueCrypt Team.

Removed support for Windows 98 and ME because the author of the Windows 9x driver for E4M (the ScramDisk driver) gave no permission that would allow his code to be used in projects derived from E4M. Added plausible deniability for containers (although due to its simplistic nature, the practical value of the 'plausible deniability' offered in this version is debatable), and various bugfixes and improvements over E4M. Featured support for Windows 98, ME, 2000, and XP. However, E4M was discontinued in 2000 as the author, Paul Le Roux, began working on commercial encryption software. TrueCrypt is based on Encryption for the Masses ( E4M), an open source on-the-fly encryption program first released in 1997.
