One of the machines under my control is a dual-boot UEFI system with Debian GNU/Linux sid (dm-crypt/LUKS) and Windows 8.1 Enterprise (VeraCrypt), which is indeed a bit tricky: I have never managed to decrypt and mount the VeraCrypt encrypted Win8.1 system partition (from the internal HD) into my Linux system.
> are there any issues with using luks and veracrypt in the same environment? You can check out the entire changelog here. The Linux version has three additional fixes and improvements, including one crash fix. Both address a hidden volume settings display issue when enabling hidden volume protection in the mount options window.
Linux and Mac OS builds of VeraCrypt share a fix, which is also the only fix for Mac OS. The outer volume password is not cached anymore when mounting with hidden volume protection if the wrong hidden volume password was specified.Double-clicking mounted drives did not work in some cases in the VeraCrypt user interface.The error that prevented Traveler Disks from being created using MSI has been fixed.
The MSI installer is compatible with system encryption.The minimum supported operating system version for MSI installs was set to Windows 7 this is a bit strange, as the download page lists Windows 10 as the minimum requirement for the MSI installer.exe installer was almost halved by switching from Deflate compression to LZMA. The Windows version of VeraCrypt includes several other changes: The workaround is only required on systems that are affected by BSOD errors during shutdown. Set the value to 0 to disable the erasing of security keys during shutdown.Right-click on the VeraCrypt value and select New > Dword (32-bit) Value.Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\veracrypt.The developers have created a new Registry key that toggles the erasing of the encryption keys on Windows devices. VeraCrypt erases the system encryption keys on shutdown by default this procedure caused Blue Screens of Death on some Windows devices. Most changes apply only to the Windows version, including a fix for a BSOD that could happen on shutdown. VeraCrypt 1.25.9 includes fixes for the three supported operating systems Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Select Help > About in the application interface to find out which version of VeraCrypt is installed. New and existing users may download the latest version from the official website for all supported operating systems. The new version of the encryption software is already available.
