Please select 'Report a Bug' from the Help menu, and report this error. The drive is damaged (there is a physical defect on it) or a cable is damaged, or the memory is malfunctioning.\n\nPlease note that this is a problem with your hardware, not with VeraCrypt. Therefore, please do NOT report this as a bug/problem in VeraCrypt and please do NOT ask for help with this in the VeraCrypt Forums. Please contact your computer vendor's technical support team for assistance. Thank you.\n\nNote: If the error occurs repeatedly at the same place, it is very likely caused by a bad disk block, which should be possible to correct using third-party software (note that, in many cases, the 'chkdsk /r' command cannot correct it because it works only at the filesystem level; in some cases, the 'chkdsk' tool cannot even detect it). If you are accessing a drive for removable media, please make sure that a medium is inserted in the drive. The drive/medium may also be damaged (there may be a physical defect on it) or a cable may be damaged/disconnected. Your system appears to be using custom chipset drivers containing a bug that prevents encryption of the whole system drive.\n\nPlease try updating or uninstalling any custom (non-Microsoft) chipset drivers before proceeding.

Volume Type It may happen that you are forced by somebody to reveal the password to an encrypted volume. There are many situations where you cannot refuse to reveal the password (for example, due to extortion). Using a so-called hidden volume allows you to solve such situations without revealing the password to your volume. Select this option if you want to create a normal VeraCrypt volume. Please note that if you wish an operating system to be installed in a hidden partition-hosted volume, then the entire system drive cannot be encrypted using a single key.

Error: The container has been compressed at the filesystem level. VeraCrypt does not support compressed containers (note that compression of encrypted data is ineffective and redundant).\n\nPlease disable compression for the container by following these steps:\n1) Right-click the container in Windows Explorer (not in VeraCrypt).\n2) Select 'Properties'.\n3) In the 'Properties' dialog box, click 'Advanced'.\n4) In the 'Advanced Attributes' dialog box, disable the option 'Compress contents to save disk space' and click 'OK'.\n5) In the 'Properties' dialog box, click 'OK'.

Formatting the device/partition might cause data corruption and system instability.\n\nContinue? Warning: The partition is in use by the operating system or applications. You should close any applications that might be using the partition (including antivirus software).\n\nContinue? Error: The device/partition contains a file system that could not be dismounted. The file system may be in use by the operating system. Formatting the device/partition would very likely cause data corruption and system instability.\n\nTo solve this issue, we recommend that you first delete the partition and then recreate it without formatting. To do so, follow these steps:\n1) Right-click the 'Computer' (or 'My Computer') icon in the 'Start Menu' and select 'Manage'. The 'Computer Management' window should appear.\n2) In the 'Computer Management' window, select 'Storage' > 'Disk Management'.\n3) Right-click the partition you want to encrypt and select either 'Delete Partition', or 'Delete Volume', or 'Delete Logical Drive'.\n4) Click 'Yes'. If Windows asks you to restart the computer, do so. Then repeat the steps 1 and 2 and continue from the step 5.\n5) Right-click the unallocated/free space area and select either 'New Partition', or 'New Simple Volume', or 'New Logical Drive'.\n6) The 'New Partition Wizard' or 'New Simple Volume Wizard' window should appear now; follow its instructions. On the wizard page entitled 'Format Partition', select either 'Do not format this partition' or 'Do not format this volume'. In the same wizard, click 'Next' and then 'Finish'.\n7) Note that the device path you have selected in VeraCrypt may be wrong now. Therefore, exit the VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard (if it is still running) and then start it again.\n8) Try encrypting the device/partition again.\n\nIf VeraCrypt repeatedly fails to encrypt the device/partition, you may want to consider creating a file container instead. Error: The filesystem could not be locked and/or dismounted. It may be in use by the operating system or applications (for example, antivirus software). Encrypting the partition might cause data corruption and system instability.\n\nPlease close any applications that might be using the filesystem (including antivirus software) and try again. If it does not help, please follow the below steps. WARNING: Some of the mounted devices/partitions were already in use!\n\nIgnoring this can cause undesired results including system instability.\n\nWe strongly recommend that you close any application that might be using the devices/partitions. The selected device contains partitions.\n\nFormatting the device might cause system instability and/or data corruption. Please either select a partition on the device, or remove all partitions on the device to enable VeraCrypt to format it safely. The selected non-system device contains partitions.\n\nEncrypted device-hosted VeraCrypt volumes can be created within devices that do not contain any partitions (including hard disks and solid-state drives). A device that contains partitions can be entirely encrypted in place (using a single master key) only if it is the drive where Windows is installed and from which it boots.\n\nIf you want to encrypt the selected non-system device using a single master key, you will need to remove all partitions on the device first to enable VeraCrypt to format it safely (formatting a device that contains partitions might cause system instability and/or data corruption). Alternatively, you can encrypt each partition on the drive individually (each partition will be encrypted using a different master key).\n\nNote: If you want to remove all partitions from a GPT disk, you may need to convert it to a MBR disk (using e.g. the Computer Management tool) in order to remove hidden partitions. Warning: If you encrypt the entire device (as opposed to encrypting only a partition on it), operating systems will consider the device as new, empty, and unformatted (as it will contain no partition table) and may spontaneously initialize the device (or ask you if you want to do so), which may damage the volume. Furthermore, it will not be possible to consistently mount the volume as favorite (e.g. when the drive number changes) or to assign a favorite-volume label to it.\n\nTo avoid that you may want to consider creating a partition on the device and encrypting the partition instead.\n\nAre you sure want to encrypt the entire device? IMPORTANT: Please keep in mind that this volume can NOT be mounted/accessed using the drive letter %c:, which is currently assigned to it!\n\nTo mount this volume, click 'Auto-Mount Devices' in the main VeraCrypt window (alternatively, in the main VeraCrypt window, click 'Select Device', then select this partition/device, and click 'Mount'). The volume will be mounted to a different drive letter, which you select from the list in the main VeraCrypt window.\n\nThe original drive letter %c: should be used only in case you need to remove encryption from the partition/device (e.g., if you no longer need encryption). In such a case, right-click the drive letter %c: in the 'Computer' (or 'My Computer') list and select 'Format'. Otherwise, the drive letter %c: should never be used (unless you remove it, as described e.g. in the VeraCrypt FAQ, and assign it to another partition/device). In-place encryption of non-system volumes is not supported on the version of the operating system you are currently using (it is supported only on Windows Vista and later versions of Windows).\n\nThe reason is that this version of Windows does not support shrinking of a filesystem (the filesystem needs to be shrunk to make space for the volume header and backup header). The selected partition does not appear to contain an NTFS filesystem. Only partitions that contain an NTFS filesystem can be encrypted in place.\n\nNote: The reason is that Windows does not support shrinking of other types of filesystems (the filesystem needs to be shrunk to make space for the volume header and backup header). The selected partition does not appear to contain an NTFS filesystem. Only partitions that contain an NTFS filesystem can be encrypted in place.\n\nIf you want to create an encrypted VeraCrypt volume within this partition, choose the option "Create encrypted volume and format it" (instead of the option "Encrypt partition in place"). Error: The partition is too small. VeraCrypt cannot encrypt it in place. To encrypt the data on this partition, please follow these steps:\n\n1) Create a VeraCrypt volume on an empty partition/device and then mount it.\n\n2) Copy all files from the partition that you originally wanted to encrypt to the mounted VeraCrypt volume (that has been created and mounted in step 1). That way, you will create a VeraCrypt-encrypted backup of the data.\n\n3) Create a VeraCrypt volume on the partition that you originally wanted to encrypt and make sure that (in the VeraCrypt wizard) you choose the option "Create encrypted volume and format it" (instead of the option "Encrypt partition in place"). Note that all data stored on the partition will be erased. After the volume is created, mount it.\n\n4) Copy all files from the mounted backup VeraCrypt volume (created and mounted in step 1) to the mounted VeraCrypt volume that has been created (and mounted) in step 3.\n\nAfter you complete these steps, the data will be encrypted and, in addition, there will be an encrypted backup of the data. VeraCrypt can in-place encrypt only a partition, a dynamic volume, or an entire system drive.\n\nIf you want to create an encrypted VeraCrypt volume within the selected non-system device, choose the option "Create encrypted volume and format it" (instead of the option "Encrypt partition in place"). Error: VeraCrypt can in-place encrypt only a partition, a dynamic volume, or an entire system drive. Please make sure the specified path is valid. Error: Cannot shrink the filesystem (the filesystem needs to be shrunk to make space for the volume header and backup header).\n\nPossible causes and solutions:\n\n- Not enough free space on the volume. Please make sure no other application is writing to the filesystem.\n\n- Corrupted file system. Try to check it and fix any errors (right-click the corresponding drive letter in the 'Computer' list, then select Properties > Tools > 'Check Now', make sure the option 'Automatically fix file system errors' is enabled and click Start).\n\nIf the above steps do not help, please follow the below steps. Error: There is not enough free space on the volume and so the filesystem cannot be shrunk (the filesystem needs to be shrunk to make space for the volume header and backup header).\n\nPlease delete any redundant files and empty the Recycle Bin so as to free at least 256 KB of space and then try again. Note that due to a Windows issue, the amount of free space reported by the Windows Explorer may be incorrect until the operating system is restarted. If restarting the system does not help, the file system may be corrupted. Try to check it and fix any errors (right-click the corresponding drive letter in the 'Computer' list, then select Properties > Tools > 'Check Now', make sure the option 'Automatically fix file system errors' is enabled and click Start).\n\nIf the above steps do not help, please follow the below steps.

Error: An incompatible version of the VeraCrypt driver is currently running.\n\nIf you are trying to run VeraCrypt in portable mode (i.e. without installing it) and a different version of VeraCrypt is already installed, you must uninstall it first (or upgrade it using the VeraCrypt installer). To uninstall it, follow these steps: On Windows Vista or later, select 'Start Menu' > Computer > 'Uninstall or change a program' > VeraCrypt > Uninstall; on Windows XP, select 'Start Menu' > Settings > 'Control Panel' > 'Add Or Remove Programs' > VeraCrypt > Remove.\n\nSimilarly, if you are trying to run VeraCrypt in portable mode (i.e. without installing it) and a different version of VeraCrypt is already running in portable mode, you must restart the system first and then run only this new version. Error: Cipher initialization failure. Error: A weak or a potentially weak key has been detected. The key will be discarded. Please try again.

A critical error has occurred in your system, which requires VeraCrypt to be terminated.\n\nNote that this error has not been caused by VeraCrypt (so the VeraCrypt developers cannot fix it). Please, check your system for possible problems (e.g., system configuration, network connection, failing hardware components). A critical error has occurred in your system, which requires VeraCrypt to be terminated.\n\nIf this problem persists, you may want to try disabling or uninstalling applications that could potentially be causing this issue, such as antivirus or Internet security software, system "enhancers", "optimizers" or "tweakers", etc. If it does not help, you may want to try reinstalling your operating system (this problem may also be caused by malware). VeraCrypt Critical Error VeraCrypt detected that the operating system recently crashed. There are many potential reasons why the system could have crashed (for example, a failing hardware component, a bug in a device driver, etc.)\n\nDo you want VeraCrypt to check whether a bug in VeraCrypt could have caused the system crash? Do you want VeraCrypt to continue detecting system crashes? VeraCrypt found no system crash minidump file. Do you want to delete the Windows crash dump file to free up disk space? In order to analyze the system crash, VeraCrypt needs to install Microsoft Debugging Tools for Windows first.\n\nAfter you click OK, the Windows installer will download the Microsoft Debugging Tools installation package (16 MB) from a Microsoft server and install it (the Windows installer will be forwarded to the Microsoft server URL from the veracrypt.org server, which ensures that this feature works even if Microsoft changes the location of the installation package). After you click OK, VeraCrypt will analyze the system crash. This may take up to several minutes. Please make sure the environment variable 'PATH' includes the path to 'kd.exe' (Kernel Debugger). It appears that VeraCrypt most likely did not cause the system crash. There are many potential reasons why the system could have crashed (for example, a failing hardware component, a bug in a device driver, etc.) Results of the analysis indicate that updating the following driver might solve this issue: To help us determine whether there is a bug in VeraCrypt, you can send us an automatically generated error report containing the following items:\n- Program version\n- Operating system version\n- Type of CPU\n- Error category\n- Driver name and version\n- System call stack\n\nIf you select 'Yes', the following URL (which contains the entire error report) will be opened in your default Internet browser.

Apgabala izvietojums Large Files Do you intend to store files larger than 4 GB in this VeraCrypt volume? Depending on your choice above, VeraCrypt will choose a suitable default file system for the VeraCrypt volume (you will be able to select a file system in the next step). As you are creating an outer volume, you should consider choosing 'No'. If you choose 'Yes', the default filesystem will be NTFS, which is not as suitable for outer volumes as FAT (for example, the maximum possible size of the hidden volume will be significantly greater if the outer volume is formatted as FAT). Normally, FAT is the default for both hidden and normal volumes (so FAT volumes are not suspicious). However, if the user indicates intent to store files larger than 4 GB (which the FAT file system does not allow), then FAT is not the default. Are you sure you want to choose 'Yes'? Volume Creation Mode This is the fastest way to create a partition-hosted or device-hosted VeraCrypt volume (in-place encryption, which is the other option, is slower because content of each sector has to be first read, encrypted, and then written). Any data currently stored on the selected partition/device will be lost (the data will NOT be encrypted; it will be overwritten with random data). If you want to encrypt existing data on a partition, choose the other option. The entire selected partition and all data stored on it will be encrypted in place. If the partition is empty, you should choose the other option (the volume will be created much faster). Note: &Resume &Defer &Start &Continue &Format &Wipe Pārtraukt formatēšanu?

The content of the partition where the original system (of which the hidden system is a clone) resided has been successfully erased. Please make sure the version of Windows you are going to install (on the wiped partition) is the same as the version of Windows you are currently running. This is required due to the fact that both systems will share a common boot partition. The system partition/drive has been successfully encrypted.\n\nNote: If there are non-system VeraCrypt volumes that you need to have mounted automatically every time Windows starts, you can set it up by mounting each of them and selecting 'Favorites' > 'Add Mounted Volume to System Favorites').

If you select this option, the wizard will first help you create a normal VeraCrypt volume and then a hidden VeraCrypt volume within it. Inexperienced users should always select this option. If you select this option, you will create a hidden volume within an existing VeraCrypt volume. It will be assumed that you have already created a VeraCrypt volume that is suitable to host the hidden volume. Volume Creation Mode Hidden Volume Created The hidden VeraCrypt volume has been successfully created and is ready for use. If all the instructions have been followed and if the precautions and requirements listed in the section "Security Requirements and Precautions Pertaining to Hidden Volumes" in the VeraCrypt User's Guide are followed, it should be impossible to prove that the hidden volume exists, even when the outer volume is mounted.\n\nWARNING: IF YOU DO NOT PROTECT THE HIDDEN VOLUME (FOR INFORMATION ON HOW TO DO SO, REFER TO THE SECTION "PROTECTION OF HIDDEN VOLUMES AGAINST DAMAGE" IN THE VERACRYPT USER'S GUIDE), DO NOT WRITE TO THE OUTER VOLUME. OTHERWISE, YOU MAY OVERWRITE AND DAMAGE THE HIDDEN VOLUME! You have started the hidden operating system. As you may have noticed, the hidden operating system appears to be installed on the same partition as the original operating system. However, in reality, it is installed within the partition behind it (in the hidden volume). All read and write operations are being transparently redirected from the original system partition to the hidden volume.\n\nNeither the operating system nor applications will know that data written to and read from the system partition are actually written to and read from the partition behind it (from/to a hidden volume). Any such data is encrypted and decrypted on the fly as usual (with an encryption key different from the one that will be used for the decoy operating system).\n\n\nPlease click Next to continue. The outer volume has been created and mounted as drive %hc:. To this outer volume you should now copy some sensitive-looking files that you actually do NOT want to hide. They will be there for anyone forcing you to disclose the password for the first partition behind the system partition, where both the outer volume and the hidden volume (containing the hidden operating system) will reside. You will be able to reveal the password for this outer volume, and the existence of the hidden volume (and of the hidden operating system) will remain secret.\n\nIMPORTANT: The files you copy to the outer volume should not occupy more than %s. Otherwise, there may not be enough free space on the outer volume for the hidden volume (and you will not be able to continue). After you finish copying, click Next (do not dismount the volume). Outer volume has been successfully created and mounted as drive %hc:. To this volume you should now copy some sensitive-looking files that you actually do NOT want to hide. The files will be there for anyone forcing you to disclose your password. You will reveal only the password for this outer volume, not for the hidden one. The files that you really care about will be stored in the hidden volume, which will be created later on. When you finish copying, click Next. Do not dismount the volume.\n\nNote: After you click Next, cluster bitmap of the outer volume will be scanned to determine the size of uninterrupted area of free space whose end is aligned with the end of the volume. This area will accommodate the hidden volume, so it will limit its maximum possible size. Cluster bitmap scanning ensures that no data on the outer volume are overwritten by the hidden volume. Outer Volume Contents \n\nIn the next steps, you will set the options for the outer volume (within which the hidden volume will be created later on). \n\nIn the next steps, you will create a so-called outer VeraCrypt volume within the first partition behind the system partition (as was explained in one of the previous steps). Outer Volume In the following steps, you will set the options and password for the hidden volume, which will contain the hidden operating system.\n\nRemark: The cluster bitmap of the outer volume has been scanned in order to determine the size of uninterrupted area of free space whose end is aligned with the end of the outer volume. This area will accommodate the hidden volume, so it limits its maximum possible size. The maximum possible size of the hidden volume has been determined and confirmed to be greater than the size of the system partition (which is required, because the entire content of the system partition will need to be copied to the hidden volume). This ensures that no data currently stored on the outer volume will be overwritten by data written to the area of the hidden volume. IMPORTANT: Please remember the algorithms that you select in this step. You will have to select the same algorithms for the decoy system. Otherwise, the hidden system will be inaccessible! (The decoy system must be encrypted with the same encryption algorithm as the hidden system.)\n\nNote: The reason is that the decoy system and the hidden system will share a single boot loader, which supports only a single algorithm, selected by the user (for each algorithm, there is a special version of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader). \n\nThe volume cluster bitmap has been scanned and the maximum possible size of the hidden volume has been determined. In the next steps you will set the options, the size, and the password for the hidden volume. Hidden Volume The hidden volume is now protected against damage until the outer volume is dismounted.\n\nWARNING: If any data is attempted to be saved to the hidden volume area, VeraCrypt will start write-protecting the entire volume (both the outer and the hidden part) until it is dismounted. This may cause filesystem corruption on the outer volume, which (if repeated) might adversely affect plausible deniability of the hidden volume. Therefore, you should make every effort to avoid writing to the hidden volume area. Any data being saved to the hidden volume area will not be saved and will be lost. Windows may report this as a write error ("Delayed Write Failed" or "The parameter is incorrect"). Each of the hidden volumes within the newly mounted volumes is now protected against damage until dismounted.\n\nWARNING: If any data is attempted to be saved to protected hidden volume area of any of these volumes, VeraCrypt will start write-protecting the entire volume (both the outer and the hidden part) until it is dismounted. This may cause filesystem corruption on the outer volume, which (if repeated) might adversely affect plausible deniability of the hidden volume. Therefore, you should make every effort to avoid writing to the hidden volume area. Any data being saved to protected hidden volume areas will not be saved and will be lost. Windows may report this as a write error ("Delayed Write Failed" or "The parameter is incorrect"). WARNING: Data were attempted to be saved to the hidden volume area of the volume mounted as %c:! VeraCrypt prevented these data from being saved in order to protect the hidden volume. This may have caused filesystem corruption on the outer volume and Windows may have reported a write error ("Delayed Write Failed" or "The parameter is incorrect"). The entire volume (both the outer and the hidden part) will be write-protected until it is dismounted. If this is not the first time VeraCrypt has prevented data from being saved to the hidden volume area of this volume, plausible deniability of this hidden volume might be adversely affected (due to possible unusual correlated inconsistencies within the outer volume file system). Therefore, you should consider creating a new VeraCrypt volume (with Quick Format disabled) and moving files from this volume to the new volume; this volume should be securely erased (both the outer and the hidden part). We strongly recommend that you restart the operating system now. You have indicated intent to store files larger than 4 GB on the volume. This requires the volume to be formatted as NTFS, which, however, will not be possible. Please note that when a hidden operating system is running, non-hidden VeraCrypt volumes cannot be formatted as NTFS. The reason is that the volume would need to be temporarily mounted without write protection in order to allow the operating system to format it as NTFS (whereas formatting as FAT is performed by VeraCrypt, not by the operating system, and without mounting the volume). For further technical details, see below. You can create a non-hidden NTFS volume from within the decoy operating system. For security reasons, when a hidden operating system is running, hidden volumes can be created only in the 'direct' mode (because outer volumes must always be mounted as read-only). To create a hidden volume securely, follow these steps:\n\n1) Boot the decoy system.\n\n2) Create a normal VeraCrypt volume and, to this volume, copy some sensitive-looking files that you actually do NOT want to hide (the volume will become the outer volume).\n\n3) Boot the hidden system and start the VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard. If the volume is file-hosted, move it to the system partition or to another hidden volume (otherwise, the newly created hidden volume would be mounted as read-only and could not be formatted). Follow the instructions in the wizard so as to select the 'direct' hidden volume creation mode.\n\n4) In the wizard, select the volume you created in step 2 and then follow the instructions to create a hidden volume within it. For security reasons, when a hidden operating system is running, local unencrypted filesystems and non-hidden VeraCrypt volumes are mounted as read-only (no data can be written to such filesystems or VeraCrypt volumes).\n\nData is allowed to be written to any filesystem that resides within a hidden VeraCrypt volume (provided that the hidden volume is not located in a container stored on an unencrypted filesystem or on any other read-only filesystem). There are three main reasons why such countermeasures have been implemented:\n\n- It enables the creation of a secure platform for mounting of hidden VeraCrypt volumes. Note that we officially recommend that hidden volumes are mounted only when a hidden operating system is running. (For more information, see the subsection 'Security Requirements and Precautions Pertaining to Hidden Volumes' in the documentation.)\n\n- In some cases, it is possible to determine that, at a certain time, a particular filesystem was not mounted under (or that a particular file on the filesystem was not saved or accessed from within) a particular instance of an operating system (e.g. by analyzing and comparing filesystem journals, file timestamps, application logs, error logs, etc). This might indicate that a hidden operating system is installed on the computer. The countermeasures prevent these issues.\n\n- It prevents data corruption and allows safe hibernation. When Windows resumes from hibernation, it assumes that all mounted filesystems are in the same state as when the system entered hibernation. VeraCrypt ensures this by write-protecting any filesystem accessible both from within the decoy and hidden systems. Without such protection, the filesystem could become corrupted when mounted by one system while the other system is hibernated. Note: If you need to securely transfer files from the decoy system to the hidden system, follow these steps:\n1) Start the decoy system.\n2) Save the files to an unencrypted volume or to an outer/normal VeraCrypt volume.\n3) Start the hidden system.\n4) If you saved the files to a VeraCrypt volume, mount it (it will be automatically mounted as read-only).\n5) Copy the files to the hidden system partition or to another hidden volume. Your computer must be restarted.\n\nDo you want to restart it now? An error occurred when obtaining the system encryption status. No password specified in the command line.

IMPORTANT: If you did not destroy your VeraCrypt Rescue Disk, your system partition/drive can still be decrypted using the old password (by booting the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk and entering the old password). You should create a new VeraCrypt Rescue Disk and then destroy the old one.\n\nDo you want to create a new VeraCrypt Rescue Disk? Note that your VeraCrypt Rescue Disk still uses the previous algorithm. If you consider the previous algorithm insecure, you should create a new VeraCrypt Rescue Disk and then destroy the old one.\n\nDo you want to create a new VeraCrypt Rescue Disk? Any kind of file (for example, .mp3, .jpg, .zip, .avi) may be used as a VeraCrypt keyfile. Note that VeraCrypt never modifies the keyfile contents. You can select more than one keyfile (the order does not matter). If you add a folder, all non-hidden files found in it will be used as keyfiles. Click 'Add Token Files' to select keyfiles stored on security tokens or smart cards (or to import keyfiles to security tokens or smart cards). Keyfile(s) successfully added/removed. Keyfile exported.

Please enter the password and/or keyfile(s) for the non-system volume where you want to resume the process of in-place encryption.\n\n\nRemark: After you click Next, VeraCrypt will attempt to find all non-system volumes where the process of encryption has been interrupted and where the VeraCrypt volume header can be decrypted using the supplied password and/or keyfile(s). If more than one such volume is found, you will need to select one of them in the next step. Please select one of the listed volumes. The list contains every accessible non-system volume where the process of encryption has been interrupted and whose header could be decrypted using the supplied password and/or keyfile(s). Please enter the password and/or keyfile(s) for the non-system VeraCrypt volume that you want to decrypt. It is very important that you choose a good password. You should avoid choosing one that contains only a single word that can be found in a dictionary (or a combination of 2, 3, or 4 such words). It should not contain any names or dates of birth. It should not be easy to guess. A good password is a random combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters, such as @ ^ = $ * + etc. We recommend choosing a password consisting of 20 or more characters (the longer, the better). The maximum possible length is 64 characters. Please choose a password for the hidden volume. Please choose a password for the hidden operating system (i.e. for the hidden volume). IMPORTANT: The password that you choose for the hidden operating system in this step must be substantially different from the other two passwords (i.e. from the password for the outer volume and from the password for the decoy operating system). Please enter the password for the volume within which you wish to create a hidden volume.\n\nAfter you click Next, VeraCrypt will attempt to mount the volume. As soon as the volume is mounted, its cluster bitmap will be scanned to determine the size of the uninterrupted area of free space (if there is any) whose end is aligned with the end of the volume. This area will accommodate the hidden volume and therefore will limit its maximum possible size. Cluster map scanning is necessary to ensure that no data on the outer volume will be overwritten by the hidden volume. \nPlease choose a password for the outer volume. This will be the password that you will be able to reveal to an adversary if you are asked or forced to do so.\n\nIMPORTANT: The password must be substantially different from the one you will choose for the hidden volume.\n\nNote: The maximum possible password length is 64 characters. Please choose a password for the outer volume. This will be the password you will be able to reveal to anyone forcing you to disclose the password for the first partition behind the system partition, where both the outer volume and the hidden volume (containing the hidden operating system) will reside. The existence of the hidden volume (and of the hidden operating system) will remain secret. Note that this password is not for the decoy operating system.\n\nIMPORTANT: The password must be substantially different from the one you will choose for the hidden volume (i.e. for the hidden operating system).

WARNING: You should use Quick Format only in the following cases:\n\n1) The device contains no sensitive data and you do not need plausible deniability.\n2) The device has already been securely and fully encrypted.\n\nAre you sure you want to use Quick Format? Dynamic container is a pre-allocated NTFS sparse file whose physical size (actual disk space used) grows as new data is added to it.\n\nWARNING: Performance of sparse-file-hosted volumes is significantly worse than performance of regular volumes. Sparse-file-hosted volumes are also less secure, because it is possible to tell which volume sectors are unused. Furthermore, sparse-file-hosted volumes cannot provide plausible deniability (host a hidden volume). Also note that if data is written to a sparse file container when there is not enough free space in the host file system, the encrypted file system may get corrupted.\n\nAre you sure you want to create a sparse-file-hosted volume? Note that the size of the dynamic container reported by Windows and by VeraCrypt will always be equal to its maximum size. To find out current physical size of the container (actual disk space it uses), right-click the container file (in a Windows Explorer window, not in VeraCrypt), then select 'Properties' and see the 'Size on disk' value.\n\nAlso note that if you move a dynamic container to another volume or drive, the physical size of the container will be extended to the maximum. (You can prevent that by creating a new dynamic container in the destination location, mounting it and then moving the files from the old container to the new one.)

Error: Cannot get volume size!\n\nMake sure the selected volume is not being used by the system or an application. Hidden volumes must not be created within dynamic (sparse file) containers. To achieve plausible deniability, the hidden volume needs to be created within a non-dynamic container. The VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard can create a hidden volume only within a FAT or NTFS volume. Under Windows 2000, the VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard can create a hidden volume only within a FAT volume. Note: The FAT file system is more suitable for outer volumes than the NTFS file system (for example, the maximum possible size of the hidden volume would very likely have been significantly greater if the outer volume had been formatted as FAT). Note that the FAT file system is more suitable for outer volumes than the NTFS file system. For example, the maximum possible size of the hidden volume will very likely be significantly greater if the outer volume is formatted as FAT (the reason is that the NTFS file system always stores internal data exactly in the middle of the volume and, therefore, the hidden volume can reside only in the second half of the outer volume).\n\nAre you sure you want to format the outer volume as NTFS? Do you want to format the volume as FAT instead? Note: This volume cannot be formatted as FAT, because it exceeds the maximum volume size supported by the FAT32 filesystem for the applicable sector size (2 TB for 512-byte sectors and 16 TB for 4096-byte sectors). Error: The partition for the hidden operating system (i.e. the first partition behind the system partition) must be at least 5% larger than the system partition (the system partition is the one where the currently running operating system is installed). Error: The partition for the hidden operating system (i.e. the first partition behind the system partition) must be at least 110% (2.1 times) larger than the system partition (the system partition is the one where the currently running operating system is installed). The reason is that the NTFS file system always stores internal data exactly in the middle of the volume and, therefore, the hidden volume (which is to contain a clone of the system partition) can reside only in the second half of the partition. Error: If the outer volume is formatted as NTFS, it must be at least 110% (2.1 times) larger than the system partition. The reason is that the NTFS file system always stores internal data exactly in the middle of the volume and, therefore, the hidden volume (which is to contain a clone of the system partition) can reside only in the second half of the outer volume.\n\nNote: The outer volume needs to reside within the same partition as the hidden operating system (i.e. within the first partition behind the system partition). Error: There is no partition behind the system partition.\n\nNote that before you can create a hidden operating system, you need to create a partition for it on the system drive. It must be the first partition behind the system partition and it must be at least 5% larger than the system partition (the system partition is the one where the currently running operating system is installed). However, if the outer volume (not to be confused with the system partition) is formatted as NTFS, the partition for the hidden operating system must be at least 110% (2.1 times) larger than the system partition (the reason is that the NTFS file system always stores internal data exactly in the middle of the volume and, therefore, the hidden volume, which is to contain a clone of the system partition, can reside only in the second half of the partition). Remark: It is not practical (and therefore is not supported) to install operating systems in two VeraCrypt volumes that are embedded within a single partition, because using the outer operating system would often require data to be written to the area of the hidden operating system (and if such write operations were prevented using the hidden volume protection feature, it would inherently cause system crashes, i.e. 'Blue Screen' errors). For information on how to create and manage partitions, please refer to the documentation supplied with your operating system or contact your computer vendor's technical support team for assistance. Error: The currently running operating system is not installed on the boot partition (first Active partition). This is not supported.

Unregistration of the User Account Control support library failed. Note about portable mode:\n\nPlease note that the operating system requires drivers to be registered with it before they can be started. Hence, the VeraCrypt driver is not (and cannot be) fully portable (whereas the VeraCrypt applications are fully portable, i.e. they do not have to be installed or registered with the operating system). Also note that VeraCrypt needs a driver to provide transparent on-the-fly encryption/decryption. Note that if you decide to run VeraCrypt in portable mode (as opposed to running an installed copy of VeraCrypt), the system will ask you for permission to run VeraCrypt (UAC prompt) every time you attempt to run it.\n\nThe reason is that when you run VeraCrypt in portable mode, VeraCrypt needs to load and start the VeraCrypt device driver. VeraCrypt needs a device driver to provide transparent on-the-fly encryption/decryption, and users without administrator privileges cannot start device drivers in Windows.

Therefore, you cannot create a file-hosted VeraCrypt volume (container) larger than 2048 GB under Windows XP.\n\nNote that it is still possible to encrypt the entire drive or create a partition-hosted VeraCrypt volume larger than 2048 GB under Windows XP. WARNING: If you want to be able to add more data/files to the outer volume in future, you should consider choosing a smaller size for the hidden volume.\n\nAre you sure you want to continue with the size you specified?

Paging file creation has been prevented.\n\nPlease note that, due to Windows issues, paging files cannot be located on non-system VeraCrypt volumes (including system favorite volumes). VeraCrypt supports creation of paging files only on an encrypted system partition/drive. An error or incompatibility prevents VeraCrypt from encrypting the hibernation file. Therefore, hibernation has been prevented.\n\nNote: When a computer hibernates (or enters a power-saving mode), the content of its system memory is written to a hibernation storage file residing on the system drive.

Hibernation has been prevented.\n\nVeraCrypt does not support hibernation on hidden operating systems that use an extra boot partition. Please note that the boot partition is shared by both the decoy and the hidden system.

Warning: This volume is encrypted with a legacy encryption algorithm.\n\nAll 64-bit-block encryption algorithms (e.g., Blowfish, CAST-128, or Triple DES) are deprecated. It will be possible to mount this volume using future versions of VeraCrypt. However, there will be no further enhancements to the implementations of these legacy encryption algorithms. We recommend that you create a new VeraCrypt volume encrypted with a 128-bit-block encryption algorithm (e.g., AES, Serpent, Twofish, etc.) and that you move all files from this volume to the new volume. Your system is not configured to auto-mount new volumes. It may be impossible to mount device-hosted VeraCrypt volumes. Auto-mounting can be enabled by executing the following command and restarting the system.\n\nmountvol.exe /E Please assign a drive letter to the partition/device before proceeding ('Control Panel' > 'System and Maintenance' > 'Administrative Tools' - 'Create and format hard disk partitions').\n\nNote that this is a requirement of the operating system. Mount VeraCrypt volume Dismount all VeraCrypt volumes VeraCrypt failed to obtain Administrator privileges. Access was denied by the operating system.\n\nPossible cause: The operating system requires that you have read/write permission (or administrator privileges) for certain folders, files, and devices, in order for you to be allowed to read and write data to/from them. Normally, a user without administrator privileges is allowed to create, read and modify files in his or her Documents folder. Error: The drive uses an unsupported sector size.\n\nIt is currently not possible to create partition/device-hosted volumes on drives that use sectors larger than 4096 bytes. However, note that you can create file-hosted volumes (containers) on such drives. It is currently not possible to encrypt a system installed on a disk that uses a sector size other than 512 bytes. The VeraCrypt Boot Loader requires at least 32 KBytes of free space at the beginning of the system drive (the VeraCrypt Boot Loader needs to be stored in that area). Unfortunately, your drive does not meet this condition.\n\nPlease do NOT report this as a bug/problem in VeraCrypt. To solve this problem, you will need to repartition your disk and leave the first 32 KBytes of the disk free (in most cases, you will need to delete and recreate the first partition). We recommend that you use the Microsoft partition manager that is available e.g. when you are installing Windows. The feature is not supported on the version of the operating system you are currently using. VeraCrypt does not support encryption of a system partition/drive on the version of the operating system you are currently using. Before you can encrypt the system partition/drive on Windows Vista, you need to install Service Pack 1 or higher for Windows Vista (no such Service Pack has been installed on this system yet).\n\nNote: Service Pack 1 for Windows Vista resolved an issue causing a shortage of free base memory during system boot. VeraCrypt no longer supports encryption of the system partition/drive on Windows Vista with no Service Pack installed. Before upgrading VeraCrypt, please install Service Pack 1 or higher for Windows Vista. Error: This feature requires VeraCrypt to be installed on the system (you are running VeraCrypt in portable mode).\n\nPlease install VeraCrypt and then try again. WARNING: Windows does not appear to be installed on the drive from which it boots. This is not supported.\n\nYou should continue only if you are sure that Windows is installed on the drive from which it boots.\n\nDo you want to continue? Your system drive has a GUID partition table (GPT). Currently, only drives with a MBR partition table are supported. CAUTION: The VeraCrypt Boot Loader is already installed on your system drive!\n\nIt is possible that another system on your computer is already encrypted.\n\nWARNING: PROCEEDING WITH ENCRYPTION OF THE CURRENTLY RUNNING SYSTEM MAY MAKE OTHER SYSTEM(S) IMPOSSIBLE TO START AND RELATED DATA INACCESSIBLE.\n\nAre you sure you want to continue? Failed to restore the original system loader.\n\nPlease use your VeraCrypt Rescue Disk ('Repair Options' > 'Restore original system loader') or Windows installation medium to replace the VeraCrypt Boot Loader with the Windows system loader. The original system loader will not be stored on the Rescue Disk (probable cause: missing backup file). Failed to write the MBR sector.\n\nYour BIOS may be configured to protect the MBR sector. Check your BIOS settings (press F2, Delete, or Esc, after powering on your computer) for MBR/antivirus protection. WARNING: The verification of VeraCrypt bootloader fingerprint failed!\nYour disk may have been tampered with by an attacker ("Evil Maid" attack).\n\nThis warning can also be triggered if you restored VeraCrypt boot loader using an Rescue Disk generated using a different VeraCrypt version.\n\nYou are advised to change your password immediately which will also restore the correct VeraCrypt bootloader. It is recommended to reinstall VeraCrypt and to take measures to avoid access to this machine by untrusted entities. The required version of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader is currently not installed. This may prevent some of the settings from being saved. Note: In some situations, you may wish to prevent a person (adversary) that is watching you start the computer from knowing that you use VeraCrypt. The above options allow you to do that by customizing the VeraCrypt boot loader screen. If you enable the first option, no texts will be displayed by the boot loader (not even when you enter the wrong password). The computer will appear to be "frozen" while you can type your password. In addition, a custom message can be displayed to mislead the adversary. For example, fake error messages such as "Missing operating system" (which is normally displayed by the Windows boot loader if it finds no Windows boot partition). It is, however, important to note that if the adversary can analyze the content of the hard drive, he can still find out that it contains the VeraCrypt boot loader. WARNING: Please keep in mind that if you enable this option, the VeraCrypt boot loader will not display any texts (not even when you enter the wrong password). The computer will appear to be "frozen" (unresponsive) while you can type your password (the cursor will NOT move and no asterisk will be displayed when you press a key).\n\nAre you sure you want to enable this option? Your system partition/drive appears to be fully encrypted. VeraCrypt does not support encrypting a system drive that has been converted to a dynamic disk. The system drive contains extended (logical) partitions.\n\nYou can encrypt an entire system drive containing extended (logical) partitions only on Windows Vista and later versions of Windows. On Windows XP, you can encrypt an entire system drive provided that it contains only primary partitions.\n\nNote: You can still encrypt the system partition instead of the entire system drive (and, in addition to that, you can create partition-hosted VeraCrypt volumes within any non-system partitions on the drive). WARNING: As you are running Windows XP/2003, after you start encrypting the drive, you must NOT create any extended (logical) partitions on it (you may create only primary partitions). Any extended (logical) partition on the drive would be inaccessible after you start encrypting (the drive currently does not contain any such partition).\n\nNote: If this limitation is not acceptable, you can go back and choose to encrypt only the system partition instead of the entire drive (and, in addition to that, you can create partition-hosted VeraCrypt volumes within any non-system partitions on the drive).\n\nAlternatively, if this limitation is not acceptable, you may want to consider upgrading to Windows Vista or a later version of Windows (you can encrypt an entire system drive containing extended/logical partitions only on Windows Vista or later). Your system drive contains a non-standard partition.\n\nIf you are using a notebook, your system drive probably contains a special recovery partition. After the whole system drive is encrypted (including any recovery partition), your system might become unbootable if your computer is using an inappropriately designed BIOS. It would also be impossible to use any recovery partition until the system drive is decrypted. Therefore, we recommend that you encrypt only the system partition. Do you want to encrypt the system partition instead of the entire drive?\n\nNote that you can create partition-hosted VeraCrypt volumes within any non-system partitions on the drive (in addition to encrypting the system partition). As your system drive contains only a single partition that occupies the whole drive, it is preferable (more secure) to encrypt the entire drive including the free "slack" space that typically surrounds such a partition.\n\nDo you want to encrypt the entire system drive? Your system is configured to store temporary files on a non-system partition.\n\nTemporary files may be stored only on the system partition. Your user profile files are not stored on the system partition.\n\nUser profile files may be stored only on the system partition. There is/are paging file(s) on non-system partitions.\n\nPaging files may be located only on the system partition. Do you want to configure Windows to create paging files only on the Windows partition now?\n\nNote that if you click 'Yes', the computer will be restarted. Then start VeraCrypt and try creating the hidden OS again. Otherwise, plausible deniability of the hidden operating system might be adversely affected.\n\nNote: If an adversary analyzed the content of such files (residing on a non-system partition), he might find out that you used this wizard in the hidden-system-creation mode (which might indicate the existence of a hidden operating system on your computer). Also note that any such files stored on the system partition will be securely erased by VeraCrypt during the process of creation of the hidden operating system. WARNING: During the process of creation of the hidden operating system, you will be required to fully reinstall the currently running system (in order to create a decoy system securely).\n\nNote: The currently running operating system and the entire content of the system partition will be copied to the hidden volume (in order to create the hidden system).\n\n\nAre you sure you will be able to install Windows using a Windows Setup medium (or using a service partition)? For security reasons, if the currently running operating system requires activation, it must be activated before proceeding. Note that the hidden operating system will be created by copying the content of the system partition to a hidden volume (so if this operating system is not activated, the hidden operating system will not be activated either). For more information, see the section "Security Requirements and Precautions Pertaining to Hidden Volumes" in the VeraCrypt User's Guide.\n\nImportant: Before proceeding, please make sure you have read the section "Security Requirements and Precautions Pertaining to Hidden Volumes" in the VeraCrypt User's Guide.\n\n\nDoes the currently running operating system meet the above condition? Your system uses an extra boot partition. VeraCrypt does not support hibernation on hidden operating systems that use an extra boot partition (decoy systems can be hibernated without any problems).\n\nPlease note that the boot partition would be shared by both the decoy and the hidden system. Therefore, in order to prevent data leaks and problems while resuming from hibernation, VeraCrypt has to prevent the hidden system from writing to the shared boot partition and from hibernating.\n\n\nDo you want to continue? If you select 'No', instructions for removing the extra boot partition will be displayed. \nThe extra boot partition can be removed before installing Windows. To do so, follow these steps:\n\n1) Boot your Windows installation disc.\n\n2) In the Windows installer screen, click 'Install now' > 'Custom (advanced)'.\n\n3) Click 'Drive Options'.\n\n4) Select the main system partition and delete it by clicking 'Delete' and 'OK'.\n\n5) Select the 'System Reserved' partition, click 'Extend', and increase its size so that the operating system can be installed to it.\n\n6) Click 'Apply' and 'OK'.\n\n7) Install Windows on the 'System Reserved' partition.\n\n\nShould an attacker ask why you removed the extra boot partition, you can answer that you wanted to prevent any possible data leaks to the unencrypted boot partition.\n\nNote: You can print this text by clicking the 'Print' button below. If you save a copy of this text or print it (strongly recommended, unless your printer stores copies of documents it prints on its internal drive), you should destroy any copies of it after removing the extra boot partition (otherwise, if such a copy was found, it might indicate that there is a hidden operating system on this computer). Warning: There is unallocated space between the system partition and the first partition behind it. After you create the hidden operating system, you must not create any new partitions in that unallocated space. Otherwise, the hidden operating system will be impossible to boot (until you delete such newly created partitions). This algorithm is currently not supported for system encryption. This algorithm is not supported for TrueCrypt mode. PIM (Personal Iterations Multiplier) not supported for TrueCrypt mode. Password must contain 20 or more characters in order to use the specified PIM.\nShorter passwords can only be used if the PIM is 485 or greater. Pre-boot authentication Password must contain 20 or more characters in order to use the specified PIM.\nShorter passwords can only be used if the PIM is 98 or greater. Keyfiles are currently not supported for system encryption. Warning: VeraCrypt could not restore the original keyboard layout. This may cause you to enter a password incorrectly. Error: Cannot set the keyboard layout for VeraCrypt to the standard US keyboard layout.\n\nNote that the password needs to be typed in the pre-boot environment (before Windows starts) where non-US Windows keyboard layouts are not available. Therefore, the password must always be typed using the standard US keyboard layout. As VeraCrypt temporarily changed the keyboard layout to the standard US keyboard layout, it is not possible to type characters by pressing keys while the right Alt key is held down. However, you can type most of such characters by pressing appropriate keys while the Shift key is held down. VeraCrypt prevented change of keyboard layout. Note: The password will need to be typed in the pre-boot environment (before Windows starts) where non-US Windows keyboard layouts are not available. Therefore, the password must always be typed using the standard US keyboard layout. However, it is important to note that you do NOT need a real US keyboard. VeraCrypt automatically ensures that you can safely type the password (right now and in the pre-boot environment) even if you do NOT have a real US keyboard. Before you can encrypt the partition/drive, you must create a VeraCrypt Rescue Disk (VRD), which serves the following purposes:\n\n- If the VeraCrypt Boot Loader, master key, or other critical data gets damaged, the VRD allows you to restore it (note, however, that you will still have to enter the correct password then).\n\n- If Windows gets damaged and cannot start, the VRD allows you to permanently decrypt the partition/drive before Windows starts.\n\n- The VRD will contain a backup of the present content of the first drive track (which typically contains a system loader or boot manager) and will allow you to restore it if necessary.\n\nThe VeraCrypt Rescue Disk ISO image will be created in the location specified below. After you click OK, Microsoft Windows Disc Image Burner will be launched. Please use it to burn the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk ISO image to a CD or DVD.\n\nAfter you do so, return to the VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard and follow its instructions. The Rescue Disk image has been created and stored in this file:\n%s\n\nNow you need to burn it to a CD or DVD.\n\n%lsAfter you burn the Rescue Disk, click Next to verify that it has been correctly burned. The Rescue Disk image has been created and stored in this file:\n%s\n\nNow you should either burn the image to a CD/DVD or move it to a safe location for later use.\n\n%lsClick Next to continue. IMPORTANT: Note that the file must be written to the CD/DVD as an ISO disk image (not as an individual file). For information on how to do so, please refer to the documentation of your CD/DVD recording software. If you do not have any CD/DVD recording software that can write the ISO disk image to a CD/DVD, click the link below to download such free software.\n\n Launch Microsoft Windows Disc Image Burner WARNING: If you already created a VeraCrypt Rescue Disk in the past, it cannot be reused for this system partition/drive because it was created for a different master key! Every time you encrypt a system partition/drive, you must create a new VeraCrypt Rescue Disk for it even if you use the same password. Error: Cannot save system encryption settings. Cannot initiate the system encryption pretest. Cannot initiate the process of creation of the hidden operating system. Wipe Mode On some types of storage media, when data is overwritten with other data, it may be possible to recover the overwritten data using techniques such as magnetic force microscopy. This also applies to data that are overwritten with their encrypted form (which happens when VeraCrypt initially encrypts an unencrypted partition or drive). According to some studies and governmental publications, recovery of overwritten data can be prevented (or made very difficult) by overwritting the data with pseudorandom and certain non-random data a certain number of times. Therefore, if you believe that an adversary might be able to use such techniques to recover the data you intend encrypt, you may want to select one of the wipe modes (existing data will NOT be lost). Note that wiping will NOT be performed after the partition/drive is encrypted. When the partition/drive is fully encrypted, no unencrypted data is written to it. Any data being written to it is first encrypted on the fly in memory and only then is the (encrypted) data written to the disk. On some types of storage media, when data is overwritten with other data (e.g. when the data is erased), it may be possible to recover the overwritten data using techniques such as magnetic force microscopy. According to some studies and governmental publications, recovery of overwritten data can be prevented (or made very difficult) by overwritting the data with pseudorandom and certain non-random data a certain number of times. Therefore, if you believe that an adversary might be able to use such techniques to recover the data that is to be erased, you may want to select one of the multi-pass wipe modes.\n\nNote: The more wipe passes you use, the longer it takes to erase the data. Wiping \nNote: You can interrupt the process of wiping, shut down your computer, start the hidden system again and then resume the process (this wizard will be launched automatically). However, if you interrupt it, the entire process of wiping will have to start from the beginning. \n\nNote: If you interrupt the process of wiping and then attempt to resume it, the entire process will have to start from the beginning. Do you want to abort the process of wiping? Warning: The entire content of the selected partition/device will be erased and lost. The entire content of the partition where the original system resides will be erased.\n\nNote: The entire content of the partition that is to be erased has been copied to this hidden system partition. WARNING: Note that when you choose e.g. the 3-pass wipe mode, the time necessary to encrypt the partition/drive will be up to 4 times longer. Likewise, if you choose the 35-pass wipe mode, it will be up to 36 times longer (it might even take several weeks).\n\nHowever, please note that wiping will NOT be performed after the partition/drive is fully encrypted. When the partition/drive is fully encrypted, no unencrypted data is written to it. Any data being written to it is first encrypted on the fly in memory and only then is the (encrypted) data written to the disk (so the performance will NOT be affected).\n\nAre you sure you want to use the wipe mode? None (fastest) 1-pass (random data) 3-pass (US DoD 5220.22-M) 7-pass (US DoD 5220.22-M) 35-pass ("Gutmann") 256-pass Number of Operating Systems WARNING: Inexperienced users should never attempt to encrypt Windows in multi-boot configurations.\n\nContinue? When creating/using a hidden operating system, VeraCrypt supports multi-boot configurations only when the following conditions are met:\n\n- The currently running operating system must be installed on the boot drive, which must not contain any other operating systems.\n\n- Operating systems installed on other drives must not use any boot loader residing on the drive on which the currently running operating system is installed.\n\nAre the above conditions met? VeraCrypt does not support this multi-boot configuration when creating/using a hidden operating system. Boot Drive Is the currently running operating system installed on the boot drive?\n\nNote: Sometimes, Windows is not installed on the same drive as the Windows boot loader (boot partition). If that is the case, select 'No'. VeraCrypt currently does not support encrypting an operating system that does not boot from the drive on which it is installed. Number of System Drives How many drives contain an operating system?\n\nNote: For example, if you have any operating system (e.g. Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, etc.) installed on your primary drive and any additional operating system installed on your secondary drive, select '2 or more'. VeraCrypt currently does not support encrypting a whole drive that contains multiple operating systems.\n\nPossible Solutions:\n\n- You can still encrypt one of the systems if you go back and choose to encrypt only a single system partition (as opposed to choosing to encrypt the entire system drive).\n\n- Alternatively, you will be able to encrypt the entire drive if you move some of the systems to other drives leaving only one system on the drive you want to encrypt. Multiple Systems on Single Drive Are there any other operating systems installed on the drive on which the currently running operating system is installed?\n\nNote: For example, if the currently running operating system is installed on the drive #0, which contains several partitions, and if one of the partitions contains Windows and another partition contains any additional operating system (e.g. Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, etc.), select 'Yes'. Non-Windows Boot Loader Is a non-Windows boot loader (or boot manager) installed in the master boot record (MBR)?\n\nNote: For example, if the first track of the boot drive contains GRUB, LILO, XOSL, or some other non-Windows boot manager (or boot loader), select 'Yes'. Multi-Boot VeraCrypt currently does not support multi-boot configurations where a non-Windows boot loader is installed in the Master Boot Record.\n\nPossible Solutions:\n\n- If you use a boot manager to boot Windows and Linux, move the boot manager (typically, GRUB) from the Master Boot Record to a partition. Then start this wizard again and encrypt the system partition/drive. Note that the VeraCrypt Boot Loader will become your primary boot manager and it will allow you to launch the original boot manager (e.g. GRUB) as your secondary boot manager (by pressing Esc in the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen) and thus you will be able boot Linux. If the currently running operating system is installed on the boot partition, then, after you encrypt it, you will need to enter the correct password even if you want to start any other unencrypted Windows system(s) (as they will share a single encrypted Windows boot loader/manager).\n\nIn contrast, if the currently running operating system is not installed on the boot partition (or if the Windows boot loader/manager is not used by any other system), then, after you encrypt this system, you will not need to enter the correct password to boot the other unencrypted system(s) -- you will only need to press the Esc key to start the unencrypted system (if there are multiple unencrypted systems, you will also need to choose which system to start in the VeraCrypt Boot Manager menu).\n\nNote: Typically, the earliest installed Windows system is installed on the boot partition. Encryption of Host Protected Area At the end of many drives, there is an area that is normally hidden from the operating system (such areas are usually referred to as Host Protected Areas). However, some programs can read and write data from/to such areas.\n\nWARNING: Some computer manufacturers may use such areas to store tools and data for RAID, system recovery, system setup, diagnostic, or other purposes. If such tools or data must be accessible before booting, the hidden area should NOT be encrypted (choose 'No' above).\n\nDo you want VeraCrypt to detect and encrypt such a hidden area (if any) at the end of the system drive? Type of System Encryption Select this option if you merely want to encrypt the system partition or the entire system drive. It may happen that you are forced by somebody to decrypt the operating system. There are many situations where you cannot refuse to do so (for example, due to extortion). If you select this option, you will create a hidden operating system whose existence should be impossible to prove (provided that certain guidelines are followed). Thus, you will not have to decrypt or reveal the password to the hidden operating system. For a detailed explanation, please click the link below. It may happen that you are forced by somebody to decrypt the operating system. There are many situations where you cannot refuse to do so (for example, due to extortion).\n\nUsing this wizard, you can create a hidden operating system whose existence should be impossible to prove (provided that certain guidelines are followed). Thus, you will not have to decrypt or reveal the password for the hidden operating system. Hidden Operating System In the following steps, you will create two VeraCrypt volumes (outer and hidden) within the first partition behind the system partition. The hidden volume will contain the hidden operating system (OS). VeraCrypt will create the hidden OS by copying the content of the system partition (where the currently running OS is installed) to the hidden volume. To the outer volume, you will copy some sensitive looking files that you actually do NOT want to hide. They will be there for anyone forcing you to disclose the password for the hidden OS partition. You can reveal the password for the outer volume within the hidden OS partition (the existence of the hidden OS remains secret).\n\nFinally, on the system partition of the currently running OS, you will install a new OS, so-called decoy OS, and encrypt it. It must not contain sensitive data and will be there for anyone forcing you to reveal your pre-boot authentication password. In total, there will be three passwords. Two of them can be disclosed (for the decoy OS and outer volume). If you use the third one, the hidden OS will start. Detecting Hidden Sectors Please wait while VeraCrypt is detecting possible hidden sectors at the end of the system drive. Note that it may take a long time to complete.\n\nNote: In very rare cases, on some computers, the system may become unresponsive during this detection process. If it happens, restart the computer, start VeraCrypt, repeat the previous steps but skip this detection process. Note that this issue is not caused by a bug in VeraCrypt. Area to Encrypt Select this option if you want to encrypt the entire drive on which the currently running Windows system is installed. The whole drive, including all its partitions, will be encrypted except the first track where the VeraCrypt Boot Loader will reside. Anyone who wants to access a system installed on the drive, or files stored on the drive, will need to enter the correct password each time before the system starts. This option cannot be used to encrypt a secondary or external drive if Windows is not installed on it and does not boot from it. Collecting Random Data Keys Generated VeraCrypt has found no CD/DVD burner connected to your computer. VeraCrypt needs a CD/DVD burner to burn a bootable VeraCrypt Rescue Disk containing a backup of the encryption keys, VeraCrypt boot loader, original system loader, etc.\n\nWe strongly recommend that you burn the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk. I have no CD/DVD burner but I will store the Rescue Disk ISO image on a removable drive (e.g. USB flash drive). I will connect a CD/DVD burner to my computer later. Terminate the process now. A CD/DVD burner is connected to my computer now. Continue and write the Rescue Disk. Please follow these steps:\n\n1) Connect a removable drive, such as a USB flash drive, to your computer now.\n\n2) Copy the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk image file (%s) to the removable drive.\n\nIn case you need to use the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk in the future, you will be able to connect your removable drive (containing the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk image) to a computer with a CD/DVD burner and create a bootable VeraCrypt Rescue Disk by burning the image to a CD or DVD. IMPORTANT: Note that the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk image file must be written to the CD/DVD as an ISO disk image (not as an individual file). Rescue Disk Recording Rescue Disk Created System Encryption Pretest Rescue Disk Verified \nThe VeraCrypt Rescue Disk has been successfully verified. Please remove it from the drive now and store it in a safe place.\n\nClick Next to continue. WARNING: During the next steps, the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk must not be in the drive. Otherwise, it will not be possible to complete the steps correctly.\n\nPlease remove it from the drive now and store it in a safe place. Then click OK. Warning: Due to technical limitations of the pre-boot environment, texts displayed by VeraCrypt in the pre-boot environment (i.e. before Windows starts) cannot be localized. The VeraCrypt Boot Loader user interface is completely in English.\n\nContinue? Before encrypting your system partition or drive, VeraCrypt needs to verify that everything works correctly.\n\nAfter you click Test, all the necessary components (for example, the pre-boot authentication component, i.e. the VeraCrypt Boot Loader) will be installed and your computer will be restarted. Then you will have to enter your password in the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen that will appear before Windows starts. After Windows starts, you will be automatically informed about the result of this pretest.\n\nThe following device will be modified: Drive #%d\n\n\nIf you click Cancel now, nothing will be installed and the pretest will not be performed. IMPORTANT NOTES -- PLEASE READ OR PRINT (click 'Print'):\n\nNote that none of your files will be encrypted before you successfully restart your computer and start Windows. Thus, if anything fails, your data will NOT be lost. However, if something does go wrong, you might encounter difficulties in starting Windows. Therefore, please read (and, if possible, print) the following guidelines on what to do if Windows cannot start after you restart the computer.\n\n What to Do If Windows Cannot Start\n------------------------------------------------\n\nNote: These instructions are valid only if you have not started encrypting.\n\n- If Windows does not start after you enter the correct password (or if you repeatedly enter the correct password but VeraCrypt says that the password is incorrect), do not panic. Restart (power off and on) the computer, and in the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen, press the Esc key on your keyboard (and if you have multiple systems, choose which to start). Then Windows should start (provided that it is not encrypted) and VeraCrypt will automatically ask whether you want to uninstall the pre-boot authentication component. Note that the previous steps do NOT work if the system partition/drive is encrypted (nobody can start Windows or access encrypted data on the drive without the correct password even if he or she follows the previous steps).\n\n - If the previous steps do not help or if the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen does not appear (before Windows starts), insert the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk into your CD/DVD drive and restart your computer. If the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk screen does not appear (or if you do not see the 'Repair Options' item in the 'Keyboard Controls' section of the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk screen), it is possible that your BIOS is configured to attempt to boot from hard drives before CD/DVD drives. If that is the case, restart your computer, press F2 or Delete (as soon as you see a BIOS start-up screen), and wait until a BIOS configuration screen appears. If no BIOS configuration screen appears, restart (reset) the computer again and start pressing F2 or Delete repeatedly as soon as you restart (reset) the computer. When a BIOS configuration screen appears, configure your BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD drive first (for information on how to do so, please refer to the documentation for your BIOS/motherboard or contact your computer vendor's technical support team for assistance). Then restart your computer. The VeraCrypt Rescue Disk screen should appear now. In the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk screen, select 'Repair Options' by pressing F8 on your keyboard. From the 'Repair Options' menu, select 'Restore original system loader'. Then remove the Rescue Disk from your CD/DVD drive and restart your computer. Windows should start normally (provided that it is not encrypted).\n\n Note that the previous steps do NOT work if the system partition/drive is encrypted (nobody can start Windows or access encrypted data on the drive without the correct password even if he or she follows the previous steps).\n\n\nNote that even if you lose your VeraCrypt Rescue Disk and an attacker finds it, he or she will NOT be able to decrypt the system partition or drive without the correct password. Pretest Completed The pretest has been successfully completed.\n\nWARNING: Please note that if power supply is suddenly interrupted while encrypting existing data in place, or when the operating system crashes due to a software error or hardware malfunction while VeraCrypt is encrypting existing data in place, portions of the data will be corrupted or lost. Therefore, before you start encrypting, please make sure that you have backup copies of the files you want to encrypt. If you do not, please back up the files now (you can click Defer, back up the files, then run VeraCrypt again anytime, and select 'System' > 'Resume Interrupted Process' to start encrypting).\n\nWhen ready, click Encrypt to start encrypting. You can click Pause or Defer anytime to interrupt the process of encryption or decryption, exit this wizard, restart or shut down your computer, and then resume the process, which will continue from the point it was stopped. To prevent slowdown when the system or applications write or read data from the system drive, VeraCrypt automatically waits until the data is written or read (see Status above) and then automatically continues encrypting or decrypting. \n\nYou can click Pause or Defer anytime to interrupt the process of encryption, exit this wizard, restart or shut down your computer, and then resume the process, which will continue from the point it was stopped. Note that the volume cannot be mounted until it has been fully encrypted. \n\nYou can click Pause or Defer anytime to interrupt the process of decryption, exit this wizard, restart or shut down the computer, and then resume the process, which will continue from the point where it was stopped. Note that the volume cannot be mounted until it has been fully decrypted. Hidden System Started Original System Windows creates (typically, without your knowledge or consent) various log files, temporary files, etc., on the system partition. It also saves the content of RAM to hibernation and paging files located on the system partition. Therefore, if an adversary analyzed files stored on the partition where the original system (of which the hidden system is a clone) resides, he might find out, for example, that you used the VeraCrypt wizard in the hidden-system-creation mode (which might indicate the existence of a hidden operating system on your computer).\n\nTo prevent such issues, VeraCrypt will, in the next steps, securely erase the entire content of the partition where the original system resides. Afterwards, in order to achieve plausible deniability, you will need to install a new system on the partition and encrypt it. Thus you will create the decoy system and the whole process of creation of the hidden operating system will be completed. The hidden operating system has been successfully created. However, before you can start using it (and achieve plausible deniability), you need to securely erase (using VeraCrypt) the entire content of the partition where the currently running operating system is installed. Before you can do that, you need to restart the computer and, in the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen (which appears before Windows starts), enter the pre-boot authentication password for the hidden operating system. Then, after the hidden system starts, the VeraCrypt wizard will be launched automatically.\n\nNote: If you choose to terminate the process of creation of the hidden operating system now, you will NOT be able to resume the process and the hidden system will NOT be accessible (because the VeraCrypt Boot Loader will be removed). You have scheduled the process of creation of a hidden operating system. The process has not been completed yet. To complete it, you need to restart the computer and, in the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen (which appears before Windows starts), enter the password for the hidden operating system.\n\nNote: If you choose to terminate the process of creation of the hidden operating system now, you will NOT be able to resume the process. Restart the computer and proceed Permanently terminate the process of creation of the hidden operating system Do nothing now and ask again later \nIF POSSIBLE, PLEASE PRINT THIS TEXT (click 'Print' below).\n\n\nHow and When to Use VeraCrypt Rescue Disk (After Encrypting)\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n I. How to Boot VeraCrypt Rescue Disk\n\nTo boot a VeraCrypt Rescue Disk, insert it into your CD/DVD drive and restart your computer. If the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk screen does not appear (or if you do not see the 'Repair Options' item in the 'Keyboard Controls' section of the screen), it is possible that your BIOS is configured to attempt to boot from hard drives before CD/DVD drives. If that is the case, restart your computer, press F2 or Delete (as soon as you see a BIOS start-up screen), and wait until a BIOS configuration screen appears. If no BIOS configuration screen appears, restart (reset) the computer again and start pressing F2 or Delete repeatedly as soon as you restart (reset) the computer. When a BIOS configuration screen appears, configure your BIOS to boot from the CD/DVD drive first (for information on how to do so, please refer to the documentation for your BIOS/motherboard or contact your computer vendor's technical support team for assistance). Then restart your computer. The VeraCrypt Rescue Disk screen should appear now. Note: In the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk screen, you can select 'Repair Options' by pressing F8 on your keyboard.\n\n\n II. When and How to Use VeraCrypt Rescue Disk (After Encrypting)\n\n 1) If the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen does not appear after you start your computer (or if Windows does not boot), the VeraCrypt Boot Loader may be damaged. The VeraCrypt Rescue Disk allows you to restore it and thus to regain access to your encrypted system and data (however, note that you will still have to enter the correct password then). In the Rescue Disk screen, select 'Repair Options' > 'Restore VeraCrypt Boot Loader'. Then press 'Y' to confirm the action, remove the Rescue Disk from your CD/DVD drive and restart your computer.\n\n 2) If you repeatedly enter the correct password but VeraCrypt says that the password is incorrect, the master key or other critical data may be damaged. The VeraCrypt Rescue Disk allows you to restore them and thus to regain access to your encrypted system and data (however, note that you will still have to enter the correct password then). In the Rescue Disk screen, select 'Repair Options' > 'Restore key data'. Then enter your password, press 'Y' to confirm the action, remove the Rescue Disk from your CD/DVD drive, and restart your computer.\n\n 3) If the VeraCrypt Boot Loader is damaged, you can avoid running it by booting directly from the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk. Insert your Rescue Disk into your CD/DVD drive and then enter your password in the Rescue Disk screen.\n\n 4) If Windows is damaged and cannot start, the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk allows you to permanently decrypt the partition/drive before Windows starts. In the Rescue Disk screen, select 'Repair Options' > 'Permanently decrypt system partition/drive'. Enter the correct password and wait until decryption is complete. Then you can e.g. boot your MS Windows setup CD/DVD to repair your Windows installation.\n\n Note: Alternatively, if Windows is damaged (cannot start) and you need to repair it (or access files on it), you can avoid decrypting the system partition/drive by following these steps: If you have multiple operating systems installed on your computer, boot the one that does not require pre-boot authentication. If you do not have multiple operating systems installed on your computer, you can boot a WinPE or BartPE CD/DVD or you can connect your system drive as a secondary or external drive to another computer and then boot the operating system installed on the computer. After you boot a system, run VeraCrypt, click 'Select Device', select the affected system partition, click 'OK', select 'System' > 'Mount Without Pre-Boot Authentication', enter your pre-boot authentication password and click 'OK'. The partition will be mounted as a regular VeraCrypt volume (data will be on-the-fly decrypted/encrypted in RAM on access, as usual).\n\n\n Note that even if you lose your VeraCrypt Rescue Disk and an attacker finds it, he or she will NOT be able to decrypt the system partition or drive without the correct password. \n\nI M P O R T A N T -- PLEASE PRINT THIS TEXT IF POSSIBLE (click 'Print' below).\n\n\nNote: This text will be automatically displayed each time you start the hidden system until you start creating the decoy system.\n\n\n How to Create Decoy System Safely and Securely\n----------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nIn order to achieve plausible deniability, you need to create the decoy operating system now. To do so, follow these steps:\n\n 1) For security reasons, shut down your computer and leave it powered off for at least several minutes (the longer, the better). This is required to clear the memory, which contains sensitive data. Then turn on the computer but do not boot the hidden system.\n\n 2) Install Windows on the partition whose content has been erased (i.e. on the partition where the original system, of which the hidden system is a clone, was installed).\n\nIMPORTANT: WHEN YOU START INSTALLING THE DECOY SYSTEM, THE HIDDEN SYSTEM WILL *NOT* BE POSSIBLE TO BOOT (because the VeraCrypt Boot Loader will be erased by the Windows system installer). THIS IS NORMAL AND EXPECTED. PLEASE DO NOT PANIC. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO BOOT THE HIDDEN SYSTEM AGAIN AS SOON AS YOU START ENCRYPTING THE DECOY SYSTEM (because VeraCrypt will then automatically install the VeraCrypt Boot Loader on the system drive).\n\nImportant: The size of the decoy system partition must remain the same as the size of the hidden volume (this condition is now met). Moreover, you must not create any partition between the decoy system partition and the partition where the hidden system resides.\n\n 3) Boot the decoy system (which you installed in step 2 and install VeraCrypt on it).\n\nKeep in mind that the decoy system must never contain any sensitive data.\n\n 4) On the decoy system, run VeraCrypt and select 'System' > 'Encrypt System Partition/Drive'. The VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard window should appear.\n\nThe following steps apply to the VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard.\n\n 5) In the VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard, do NOT select the 'Hidden' option. Leave the 'Normal' option selected and click 'Next'.\n\n 6) Select the option 'Encrypt the Windows system partition' and then click 'Next'.\n\n 7) If there are only the hidden system and the decoy system installed on the computer, select the option 'Single-boot' (if there are more than these two systems installed on the computer, select 'Multi-boot'). Then click 'Next'.\n\n 8) IMPORTANT: In this step, FOR THE DECOY SYSTEM, YOU MUST SELECT THE SAME ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM AND HASH ALGORITHM THAT YOU SELECTED FOR THE HIDDEN SYSTEM! OTHERWISE, THE HIDDEN SYSTEM WILL BE INACCESSIBLE! In other words, the decoy system must be encrypted with the same encryption algorithm as the hidden system. Note: The reason is that the decoy system and the hidden system will share a single boot loader, which supports only a single algorithm, selected by the user (for each algorithm, there is a special version of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader).\n\n 9) In this step, choose a password for the decoy operating system. This will be the password that you will be able to reveal to an adversary if you are asked or forced to disclose your pre-boot authentication password (the other password you can reveal is the one for the outer volume). The existence of the third password (i.e. of the pre-boot authentication password for the hidden operating system) will remain secret.\n\nImportant: The password you choose for the decoy system must be substantially different from the one you chose for the hidden volume (i.e. for the hidden operating system).\n\n 10) Follow the remaining instructions in the wizard so as to encrypt the decoy operating system.\n\n\n\n After Decoy System Is Created\n------------------------------------------------\n\nAfter you encrypt the decoy system, the whole process of creation of the hidden operating system will be completed and you will be able to use these three passwords:\n\n1) Pre-boot authentication password for the hidden operating system.\n\n2) Pre-boot authentication password for the decoy operating system.\n\n3) Password for the outer volume.\n\n If you want to start the hidden operating system, you will just need to enter the password for the hidden operating system in the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen (which appears after you turn on or restart your computer).\n\nIf you want to start the decoy operating system, you will just need to enter the password for the decoy operating system in the VeraCrypt Boot Loader screen.\n\nThe password for the decoy system can be disclosed to anyone forcing you to reveal your pre-boot authentication password. The existence of the hidden volume (and of the hidden operating system) will remain secret.\n\n The third password (for the outer volume) can be disclosed to anyone forcing you to reveal the password for the first partition behind the system partition, where both the outer volume and the hidden volume (containing the hidden operating system) reside. The existence of the hidden volume (and of the hidden operating system) will remain secret.\n\n\n If you revealed the password for the decoy system to an adversary and he asked you why the free space of the (decoy) system partition contains random data, you could answer, for example: "The partition previously contained a system encrypted by VeraCrypt, but I forgot the pre-boot authentication password (or the system was damaged and stopped booting), so I had to reinstall Windows and encrypt the partition again."\n\n\n If all the instructions are followed and if the precautions and requirements listed in the section "Security Requirements and Precautions Pertaining to Hidden Volumes" in the VeraCrypt User's Guide are followed, it should be impossible to prove that the hidden volume and hidden operating system exist, even when the outer volume is mounted or when the decoy operating system is decrypted or started.\n\nIf you save a copy of this text or print it (strongly recommended, unless your printer stores copies of documents it prints on its internal drive), you should destroy any copies of it after you have created the decoy system and after you have understood all the information contained in the text (otherwise, if such a copy was found, it might indicate that there is a hidden operating system on this computer).\n\n WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT PROTECT THE HIDDEN VOLUME (for information on how to do so, refer to the section "Protection of Hidden Volumes Against Damage" in the VeraCrypt User's Guide), DO NOT WRITE TO THE OUTER VOLUME (note that the decoy operating system is NOT installed in the outer volume). OTHERWISE, YOU MAY OVERWRITE AND DAMAGE THE HIDDEN VOLUME (AND THE HIDDEN OPERATING SYSTEM WITHIN IT)! Operating System Cloning In the next steps, VeraCrypt will create the hidden operating system by copying the content of the system partition to the hidden volume (data being copied will be encrypted on the fly with an encryption key different from the one that will be used for the decoy operating system).\n\nPlease note that the process will be performed in the pre-boot environment (before Windows starts) and it may take a long time to complete; several hours or even several days (depending on the size of the system partition and on the performance of your computer).\n\nYou will be able to interrupt the process, shut down your computer, start the operating system and then resume the process. However, if you interrupt it, the entire process of copying the system will have to start from the beginning (because the content of the system partition must not change during cloning). Do you want to cancel the entire process of creation of the hidden operating system?\n\nNote: You will NOT be able to resume the process if you cancel it now. Do you want to cancel the system encryption pretest? The VeraCrypt system encryption pretest failed. Do you want to try again?\n\nIf you select 'No', the pre-boot authentication component will be uninstalled.\n\nNotes:\n\n- If the VeraCrypt Boot Loader did not ask you to enter the password before Windows started, it is possible that your operating system does not boot from the drive on which it is installed. This is not supported.\n\n- If you used an encryption algorithm other than AES and the pretest failed (and you entered the password), it may have been caused by an inappropriately designed driver. Select 'No', and try encrypting the system partition/drive again, but use the AES encryption algorithm (which has the lowest memory requirements).\n\n- For more possible causes and solutions, see: https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Troubleshooting The system partition/drive does not appear to be encrypted (neither partially nor fully). Your system partition/drive is encrypted (partially or fully).\n\nPlease decrypt your system partition/drive entirely before proceeding. To do so, select 'System' > 'Permanently Decrypt System Partition/Drive' from the menu bar of the main VeraCrypt window. When the system partition/drive is encrypted (partially or fully), you cannot downgrade VeraCrypt (but you can upgrade it or reinstall the same version). Your system partition/drive is currently being encrypted, decrypted, or otherwise modified. Please interrupt the encryption/decryption/modification process (or wait until it is complete) before proceeding. An instance of the VeraCrypt Volume Creation Wizard is currently running on this system and performing or preparing encryption/decryption of the system partition/drive. Before you proceed, please wait for it to finish or close it. If you cannot close it, please restart your computer before proceeding. The process of encryption or decryption of the system partition/drive has not been completed. Please wait until it is complete before proceeding. Error: The process of encryption of the partition/drive has not been completed. It must be completed first. Error: The process of encryption of the partition/volume has not been completed. It must be completed first.\n\nNote: To resume the process, select 'Volumes' > 'Resume Interrupted Process' from the menu bar of the main VeraCrypt window. The password is correct, VeraCrypt has successfully decrypted the volume header and detected that this volume is a hidden system volume. However, you cannot modify the header of a hidden system volume this way.\n\nTo change the password for a hidden system volume, boot the operating system residing in the hidden volume, and then select 'System' > 'Change Password' from the menu bar of the main VeraCrypt window.\n\nTo set the header key derivation algorithm, boot the hidden operating system and then select 'System' > 'Set Header Key Derivation Algorithm'. VeraCrypt does not support in-place decryption of a hidden system partition.\n\nNote: If you want to decrypt the decoy system partition, boot the decoy system, and then select 'System' > 'Permanently Decrypt System Partition/Drive' from the menu bar of the main VeraCrypt window. Error: Incorrect/invalid parameter. You have selected a partition or a device but the wizard mode you selected is suitable only for file containers.\n\nDo you want to change the wizard mode? Do you want to create a VeraCrypt file container instead? You have selected the system partition/drive (or the boot partition), but the wizard mode you selected is suitable only for non-system partitions/drives.\n\nDo you want to set up pre-boot authentication (which means that you will need to enter your password each time before Windows boots/starts) and encrypt the system partition/drive? Are you sure you want to permanently decrypt the system partition/drive? CAUTION: If you permanently decrypt the system partition/drive, unencrypted data will be written to it.\n\nAre you really sure you want to permanently decrypt the system partition/drive? Are you sure you want to permanently decrypt the following volume? CAUTION: If you permanently decrypt the VeraCrypt volume, unencrypted data will be written to the disk.\n\nAre you really sure you want to permanently decrypt the selected volume? Warning: If you use a cascade of ciphers for system encryption, you may encounter the following issues:\n\n1) The VeraCrypt Boot Loader is larger than normal and, therefore, there is not enough space in the first drive track for a backup of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader. Hence, whenever it gets damaged (which often happens, for example, during inappropriately designed anti-piracy activation procedures of certain programs), you will need to use the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk to boot or to repair the VeraCrypt Boot Loader.\n\n2) On some computers, resuming from hibernation takes longer.\n\nThese potential issues can be prevented by choosing a non-cascade encryption algorithm (e.g. AES).\n\nAre you sure you want to use a cascade of ciphers? If you encounter any of the previously described problems, decrypt the partition/drive (if it is encrypted) and then try encrypting it again using a non-cascade encryption algorithm (e.g. AES). WARNING: For safety and security reasons, you should update VeraCrypt on the decoy operating system before you update it on the hidden operating system.\n\nTo do so, boot the decoy system and run the VeraCrypt installer from within it. Then boot the hidden system and run the installer from within it as well.\n\nNote: The decoy system and the hidden system share a single boot loader. If you upgraded VeraCrypt only on the hidden system (but not on the decoy system), the decoy system would contain a VeraCrypt driver and VeraCrypt applications whose version numbers are different from the version number of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader. Such a discrepancy might indicate that there is a hidden operating system on this computer.\n\n\nDo you want to continue? The version number of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader that booted this operating system is different from the version number of the VeraCrypt driver (and of the VeraCrypt applications) installed on this system.\n\nYou should run the VeraCrypt installer (whose version number is the same as the one of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader) to update VeraCrypt on this operating system. The version number of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader that booted this operating system is different from the version number of the VeraCrypt driver (and of the VeraCrypt applications) installed on this system. Note that older versions may contain bugs fixed in later versions.\n\nIf you did not boot from the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk, you should reinstall VeraCrypt or upgrade it to the latest stable version (the boot loader will be updated too).\n\nIf you booted from the VeraCrypt Rescue Disk, you should update it ('System' > 'Create Rescue Disk'). The VeraCrypt Boot Loader has been upgraded.\n\nIt is strongly recommended that you create a new VeraCrypt Rescue Disk (which will contain the new version of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader) by selecting 'System' > 'Create Rescue Disk' after you restart your computer. The VeraCrypt Boot Loader has been upgraded.\n\nIt is strongly recommended that you boot the decoy operating system and then create a new VeraCrypt Rescue Disk (which will contain the new version of the VeraCrypt Boot Loader) by selecting 'System' > 'Create Rescue Disk'. Failed to upgrade the VeraCrypt Boot Loader. VeraCrypt failed to detect the real size of the system drive and, therefore, the size reported by the operating system (which may be smaller than the real size) will be used. Also note that this is not a bug in VeraCrypt. WARNING: It appears that VeraCrypt has already tried to detect hidden sectors on this system drive. If you encountered any problems during the previous detection process, you can avoid the problems by skipping the detection of hidden sectors now. Note that if you do so, VeraCrypt will use the size reported by the operating system (which may be smaller than the real size of the drive).\n\nNote that this issue is not caused by a bug in VeraCrypt. Skip detection of hidden sectors (use the size reported by the operating system) Try to detect hidden sectors again Error: Content of one or more sectors on the disk cannot be read (probably due to a physical defect).\n\nThe process of in-place encryption can continue only when the sectors have been made readable again. VeraCrypt can attempt to make these sectors readable by writing zeros to the sectors (subsequently such all-zero blocks would be encrypted). However, note that any data stored in the unreadable sectors will be lost. If you want to avoid that, you can attempt to recover portions of the corrupted data using appropriate third-party tools.\n\nNote: In case of physically damaged sectors (as opposed to mere data corruption and checksum errors) most types of storage devices internally reallocate the sectors when data is attempted to be written to them (so the existing data in the damaged sectors may remain unencrypted on the drive).\n\nDo you want VeraCrypt to write zeroes to unreadable sectors? Error: Content of one or more sectors on the disk cannot be read (probably due to a physical defect).\n\nTo be able to proceed with decryption, VeraCrypt will have to discard the content of the unreadable sectors (the content will be replaced with pseudorandom data). Please note that, before proceeding, you can attempt to recover portions of any corrupted data using appropriate third-party tools.\n\nDo you want VeraCrypt to discard data in the unreadable sectors now? Note: VeraCrypt has replaced the content of %I64d unreadable sectors (%s) with encrypted all-zero plaintext blocks. Note: VeraCrypt has replaced the content of %I64d unreadable sectors (%s) with pseudorandom data. Enter password/PIN for token '%s': In order to allow VeraCrypt to access a security token or smart card, you need to install a PKCS #11 software library for the token or smart card first. Such a library may be supplied with the device or it may be available for download from the website of the vendor or other third parties.\n\nAfter you install the library, you can either select it manually by clicking 'Select Library' or you can let VeraCrypt find and select it automatically by clicking 'Auto-Detect Library' (only the Windows system directory will be searched).

Select Security Token Keyfiles Slot Token name File name IMPORTANT: Please note that pre-boot authentication passwords are always typed using the standard US keyboard layout. Therefore, a volume that uses a password typed using any other keyboard layout may be impossible to mount using a pre-boot authentication password (note that this is not a bug in VeraCrypt). To allow such a volume to be mounted using a pre-boot authentication password, follow these steps:\n\n1) Click 'Select File' or 'Select Device' and select the volume.\n2) Select 'Volumes' > 'Change Volume Password'.\n3) Enter the current password for the volume.\n4) Change the keyboard layout to English (US) by clicking the Language bar icon in the Windows taskbar and selecting 'EN English (United States)'.\n5) In VeraCrypt, in the field for the new password, type the pre-boot authentication password.\n6) Confirm the new password by retyping it in the confirmation field and click 'OK'.\nWARNING: Please keep in mind that if you follow these steps, the volume password will always have to be typed using the US keyboard layout (which is automatically ensured only in the pre-boot environment). System favorite volumes will be mounted using the pre-boot authentication password. If any system favorite volume uses a different password, it will not be mounted. Please note that if you need to prevent normal VeraCrypt volume actions (such as 'Dismount All', auto-dismount, etc.) from affecting system favorite volumes, you should enable the option 'Allow only administrators to view and dismount system favorite volumes in VeraCrypt'. In addition, when VeraCrypt is run without administrator privileges (the default on Windows Vista and later), system favorite volumes will not be displayed in the drive letter list in the main VeraCrypt application window. IMPORTANT: Please keep in mind that if this option is enabled and VeraCrypt does not have administrator privileges, mounted system favorite volumes are NOT displayed in the VeraCrypt application window and they cannot be dismounted. Therefore, if you need e.g. to dismount a system favorite volume, please right-click the VeraCrypt icon (in the Start menu) and select 'Run as administrator' first. The same limitation applies to the 'Dismount All' function, 'Auto-Dismount' functions, 'Dismount All' hot keys, etc. Note that this setting takes effect only after the operating system is restarted.

Allow only administrators to view and dismount system favorite volumes in VeraCrypt Mount system favorite volumes when Windows starts (in the initial phase of the startup procedure) Warning: The filesystem on the volume mounted as '%s' was not cleanly dismounted and thus may contain errors. Using a corrupted filesystem can cause data loss or data corruption.\n\nNote: Before you physically remove or switch off a device (such as a USB flash drive or an external hard drive) where a mounted VeraCrypt volume resides, you should always dismount the VeraCrypt volume in VeraCrypt first.\n\n\nDo you want Windows to attempt to detect and fix errors (if any) on the filesystem? Warning: One or more system favorite volumes were not cleanly dismounted and thus may contain filesystem errors. Please see the system event log for further details.\n\nUsing a corrupted filesystem can cause data loss or data corruption. You should check the affected system favorite volume(s) for errors (right-click each of them in VeraCrypt and select 'Repair Filesystem'). Warning: Repairing a damaged filesystem using the Microsoft 'chkdsk' tool might cause loss of files in damaged areas. Therefore, it is recommended that you first back up the files stored on the VeraCrypt volume to another, healthy, VeraCrypt volume.\n\nDo you want to repair the filesystem now? Volume '%s' has been mounted as read-only because write access was denied.\n\nPlease make sure the security permissions of the file container allow you to write to it (right-click the container and select Properties > Security).\n\nNote that, due to a Windows issue, you may see this warning even after setting the appropriate security permissions. This is not caused by a bug in VeraCrypt. A possible solution is to move your container to, e.g., your 'Documents' folder.\n\nIf you intend to keep your volume read-only, set the read-only attribute of the container (right-click the container and select Properties > Read-only), which will suppress this warning. Volume '%s' had to be mounted as read-only because write access was denied.\n\nPlease make sure no other application (e.g. antivirus software) is accessing the partition/device on which the volume is hosted. Volume '%s' has been mounted as read-only because the operating system reported the host device to be write-protected.\n\nPlease note that some custom chipset drivers have been reported to cause writable media to falsely appear write-protected. This problem is not caused by VeraCrypt. It may be solved by updating or uninstalling any custom (non-Microsoft) chipset drivers that are currently installed on this system. Note that the Hyper-Threading technology provides multiple logical cores per a single physical core. When Hyper Threading is enabled, the number selected above represents the number of logical processors/cores. %d threads Note that hardware-accelerated AES is disabled, which will affect benchmark results (worse performance).\n\nTo enable hardware acceleration, select 'Settings' > 'Performance' and enable the corresponding option. Note that the number of threads is currently limited, which will affect benchmark results (worse performance).\n\nTo utilize the full potential of the processor(s), select 'Settings' > 'Performance' and disable the corresponding option. Do you want VeraCrypt to attempt to disable write protection of the partition/drive? WARNING: This setting may degrade performance.\n\nAre you sure you want to use this setting? Warning: VeraCrypt volume auto-dismounted Before you physically remove or turn off a device containing a mounted volume, you should always dismount the volume in VeraCrypt first.\n\nUnexpected spontaneous dismount is usually caused by an intermittently failing cable, drive (enclosure), etc. This volume was created with TrueCrypt %x.%x but VeraCrypt supports only TrueCrypt volumes created with TrueCrypt 6.x/7.x series Test Keyfile Backspace Tab Clear Enter Pause Caps Lock Spacebar Page Up Page Down End Home Left Arrow Up Arrow Right Arrow Down Arrow Select Key Print Key Execute Key Print Screen Insert Delete Applications Key Sleep Num Lock Scroll Lock Browser Back Browser Forward Browser Refresh Browser Stop Browser Search Browser Favorites Browser Home Mute Volume Down Volume Up Next Track Previous Track Stop Media Play/Pause Media Start Mail Key Select Media Key Application 1 Application 2 Attn CrSel ExSel Play Zoom NumPad Shift Ctrl Alt Win B KB MB GB TB PB B/s KB/s MB/s GB/s TB/s PB/s … Include &PIM when caching pre-boot authentication password Include PIM when caching a password Make disconnected network drives available for mounting The entered password is too long: its UTF-8 representation exceeds 64 bytes.
