I need a solution

I have been happily using Encryption Desktop 10.4.0 MP1 with El Capitan after patiently waiting for it to come out and getting great advice from Mike Ankeny on this site.

I was coaching a co-worker about how to update to El Capitan and use PGP when I found the updated article at https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH174563.html which states:

Mac OS X 10.11 - El Capitan

Mac OS X 10.11.0 - 10.11.4 - Symantec Encryption Desktop 10.4 GA (Build 1200) through 10.4 MP1HF1 (Build 1245).  In order to support Symantec Drive Encryption on El Capitan, please see article TECH235027 for more information.



Note: Symantec Drive Encryption is not supported on Mac OS X 10.11.5 and above, however the email components are still supported.  During the installation, choose "Customize" and deselect the option to install Symantec Drive Encryption.

Then, to my horror I see that I am now running 10.11.6!

I've been using Encryption Desktop on 10.11.6 with no apparent problems for awhile.  Is the "not supported" related to creating new PGD files (which I haven't done since upgrading but know there is a special procedure in 10.4 called out in TECH235027 referenced above)?

Is a version of Encryption Desktop that will work with MaxOS Sierra in the works?

Thank you for your assistance.
