4:08 in my case, it only offers create a Rescue File and save it on hard disk to later extract it and copy it to USB. No CD requested.

Someone please help me, i created a hidden partition on a usb flash drive with all super important documents/passwords, and photos of my son when he was a baby.
I have both passwords for the non hidden and hidden partition, I was relatively new to veracrypt and didn’t know how it worked, they never asked me to create a file container, the program allowed me to create this hidden partition without mounting it to a drive /file container. So now I have no way to access these files even though I have both passwords. How does that even make sense .

Does this mean that if I connect to my PC from distance with Remote Desktop and choose reboot, the computer will not reboot because Vera Crypt it's waiting for a password?

Do you have a video to check if I have multiple OS on my laptop.
I started on Windows 8 and updated to Windows 10. I am unsure if Windows 8 was deleted.

And what about the boot loader and bios? As you can on the video for a short time you could start an external program from USB. Good would be if everything is encrypted

[Ken-tiun]

[sysadmin]

Encrypting full disk option is greyed out, can you help on it ?

[AiAhonor]

I can't enter the password. My external keyboard, (because my laptop keyboard is not working), is not working. Please help me out.

Don't forget, if your drive is huge its takes hours! Mine is 31 hours.
