The developer of the popular file encryption software VeraCrypt says Microsoft has blocked access to the account he used for sending updates to Windows users, and warned that anyone who encrypts their PCs with his software may soon face issues accessing their computers.
VeraCrypt developer Mounir Idrassi said in an online post on March 30 that Microsoft “terminated the account I have used for years to sign Windows drivers and the bootloader,” and said he received no explanation or ability to appeal the decision.
