Pre-Mojave: It used to be if you had an external HDD or SSD (not the boot drive) that Finder would allow you to do an "encrypt-in-place" on it in the background.
Mojave and later: Finder allows me to *decrypt* a mounted & encrypted APFS or Mac OS Extended drive, but the option to go the other way has been removed. Is there a way to encrypt my APFS-formatted external drive without losing the contents? -Carl _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list MacOSX-talk@omnigroup.com https://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
