Which but does not mean/imply that everybody abandons TrueCrypt.

Please refer to the below link to migrate to an alternative
(BitLocker) from TrueCrypt.
http://truecrypt.sourceforge.net/


STOP posting on top, but DON'T stop reading on top, read that
page COMPLETELY and notice the download(s) offered at its end!

OUCH!

Also notice the MANY download sites that still offer TrueCrypt 7.1a
and its vulnerable executable installer:
<https://truecrypt.ch/downloads/>
<http://www.heise.de/download/truecrypt.html>
<https://www.grc.com/misc/truecrypt/truecrypt.htm>
<http://filehippo.com/download_truecrypt/11601/>
<http://www.oldversion.com/windows/truecrypt-7-1a>
<http://downloads.tomsguide.com/TrueCrypt,0301-25935.html>
...

stay tuned
Stefan
