    Axcrypt , truecrypt & 7zip all uses aes encryption so which one should i use?
    i inclined toward 7zip bcoz it compresses file very well & 7zip file is also supported by other archiver ie winrar, also support aes 256 & works from context menu
    i have no intention of encrypting entire hdd or partition just some big files is there any difference between aes of truecrypt & 7zip's aes?
    plz help me which one should i prefer

    I am using encFS

    tested and works OK with a lot of Linux distros + windows XP / 7 / 8 ! currently I m using it with win8 x64 (just the Dokan library needs the compatibility mode as "xp")
