In case an attacker forces you to reveal the password, VeraCrypt provides plausible deniability. In contrast to file encryption, data encryption performed by VeraCrypt is real-time (on-the-fly), automatic, transparent, needs very little memory, and does not involve temporary unencrypted files."/> <meta name="keywords" content="encryption, security"/> <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div> <a href="Documentation.html"><img src="VeraCrypt128x128.png" alt="VeraCrypt"/></a> </div> <div id="menu"> <ul> <li><a href="Home.html">Home</a></li> <li><a href="/code/">Source Code</a></li> <li><a href="Downloads.html">Downloads</a></li> <li><a class="active" href="Documentation.html">Documentation</a></li> <li><a href="Donation.html">Donate</a></li> <li><a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/veracrypt/discussion/" target="_blank">Forums</a></li> </ul> </div> <div> <a href="Documentation.html">Documentation</a> <img src="arrow_right.gif" alt=">>" style="margin-top: 5px"> <a href="Release%20Notes.html">Version History</a> </div> <div class="wikidoc"> <h1>Release Notes</h1> Note to users who created volumes with 1.17 version of VeraCrypt or earlier: To avoid hinting whether your volumes contain a hidden volume or not, or if you depend on plausible deniability when using hidden volumes/OS, then you must recreate both the outer and hidden volumes including system encryption and hidden OS, discarding existing volumes created prior to 1.18a version of VeraCrypt.</li> 1.25.7 (January 7th, 2022): <ul> <li>All OSes: <ul> <li>Update translations.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Windows: <ul> <li>Restore support of Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1. <ul> <li>Windows 7 support requires that either KB3033929 or KB4474419 is installed.</li> <li>Windows Vista support requires that either KB4039648 or KB4474419 is installed.</li> </ul> </li> <li>MSI installation only: Fix double-clicking .hc file container inserting %1 instead of volume name in path field.</li> <li>Advanced users: Add registry settings to control driver internal encryption queue to allow tuning performance for SSD disks and having better stability under heavy load. <ul> <li>Under registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\veracrypt: <ul> <li>VeraCryptEncryptionFragmentSize (REG_DWORD): size of encryption data fragment in KiB.
