AI Recommendation
1 suggestionGood news! VeraCrypt now has native Apple Silicon support as of version 1.25.4, and the latest version 1.26.24 is confirmed to run natively on Apple Silicon Macs as a Universal binary. You should update to the latest version from the official VeraCrypt website to get native performance without Rosetta 2. Note that on Apple Silicon Macs, you'll need to use FUSE-T instead of macFUSE for optimal compatibility. The update process is straightforward - simply download and install the latest version, which will replace your Intel-only installation with the Universal binary that runs natively on both Intel and Apple Silicon processors.
