Anyone knows of something like VeraCrypt, but with a portable mounter exe that can use data appended to the exe?
Like an encrypted RAR/7z SFX, except that it mounts a volume instead of extracts.

If it really doesn't exist, and I were to do it myself (cleanly), I think I'd modify VeraCrypt.

Read-only should be simple, read/write might require running a copy of the EXE.

Ultimately it's just adding an offset to your I/O.

(I think that's also what RAR and 7zip SFXes do).
