Keeping Veracrypt Data Out of Swap?

[Emily]

Newbie Q: If I have open Veracrypt containters and I hibernate my system, does the cointainer data write to the swap partition, unencrypted?

If so, how can I keep unencrytped Veracrypt data out of swap?

[DDD]

That's interesting. So I guess it's just with system encryption that Veracrypt disables hibernation? Good question about unencrypted data out of swap.

I avoid this (at least I think so) by using Auto-Dismount options in Settings; also I define mounted volumes as removable (thus a forced dismount [setting] should not be detrimental). I turn on the following options:

• User logs off
• Session locked
• Entering power saving mode (standby, hibernate)
• Force auto dismount ... (removable attribute recommended)
