Encrypt a virtual hard disk on Windows 7 Home Premium?

0

I have a virtual hard disk file (*.VHD) and as Windows 7 Home Premium user, I don't have BitLocker to encrypt this hard disk. So is there any alternative way for me to do so?

I am tempted to give you a -1 for lack of research, because I can't imagine Google would have returned the almost universal TruCrypt with even a sub-par search string...

I am going with the benefit of the doubt though, and posting TruCrypt, its free and open and well respected.

Nitpick: It's TrueCrypt with an 'e'. – Karan – 2013-04-16T23:07:40.593

@Karan right you are. – Austin T French – 2013-04-16T23:27:50.877

@AthomSfere I had downloaded TrueCrypt even before I posted this question. But I'm an inexperienced user so I couldn't make the program encrypt an existing partition - which is previously attached from a VHD file. I'm really looking for an article about this. – Teiv – 2013-04-17T10:40:45.893

1@user433531 your question reflected neither of those points. – Austin T French – 2013-04-17T10:43:00.503
