<title>VeraCrypt - Free Open source disk encryption with strong security for the Paranoid</title>
<metaname="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>Converting TrueCrypt volumes and partitions</h1>
<p>Starting from version 1.0f, TrueCrypt volumes and <strong>non-system</strong> partitions can be converted to VeraCrypt format using any of the following actions:</p>
<p><strong>⚠️ Warning:</strong><spanstyle="color: red;">After conversion, ensure that the "TrueCrypt Mode" checkbox is not selected during the mount of the converted volume. Since it is no longer a TrueCrypt volume, mounting it with this option will lead to a mount failure.</span></p>
