> not with even with your computer would I run VeraCrypt

This has got to be the most surprising encryption-related comment I've ever read from you. Please tell us what you're thinking about VeraCrypt. What would you say about TrueCrypt v7.1a, the last known good release?

I would also love to hear specific opinions about VeraCrypt because I need to get some Windows users to encrypt some of their seldom-used sensitive files, like HR for example.

They can't use age or any other "right answer" tools. I'm talking about people who don't know their own username, people who don't know that their Windows password is the one they use to log into Windows. "Is that for my email?" Just getting them to use a password manager is like arm wrestling an aligator. If VeraCrypt isn't the best option for them, then what is?

What’s the use case for encrypting the files?

Generally I’d say this is what Sharepoint or Box or a more workflow-specific platform is for. You generally don’t want sensitive data living on individual people’s workstations in an enterprise context, you want it somewhere that you can enforce security settings.
