<title>VeraCrypt - Free Open source disk encryption with strong security for the Paranoid</title>
<meta name="description" content="VeraCrypt is free open-source disk encryption software for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. In case an attacker forces you to reveal the password, VeraCrypt provides plausible deniability. In contrast to file encryption, data encryption performed by VeraCrypt is real-time (on-the-fly), automatic, transparent, needs very little memory, and does not involve temporary unencrypted files."/>

<h1>TrueCrypt Support</h1>
<p>Starting from version 1.0f, VeraCrypt supports loading TrueCrypt volumes and partitions, both normal and hidden. In order to activate this, you have to check &ldquo;TrueCrypt Mode&rdquo; in the password prompt dialog as shown below.</p>

<p><strong>Note:</strong> Only volumes and partitions created using TrueCrypt versions
<strong>6.x</strong> and <strong>7.x</strong> are supported.</p>
