I have a tool, written in pure C, no dependencies, open source, that can read a VeraCrypt container (encrypted) file and convert it to a *.vhd (decrypted) disk image.

It has some limitations: Only container files work, no full disk encryption. You obviously need to provide the password and PIM code. It does not support all the encryption modes.

This might be used in scenarios when you no longer wish to keep your data encrypted and want to migrate somewhere else, be it decrypted storage or different encryption solution. Or, just to look at your data without touching then in read/write mode. My tool does not modify your data in any way. Or, to look at your data without installing any VeraCrypt software first.

It started as little fun exercise in encryption technologies. It is very tiny program. And today might be useful to somebody. Available at https://github.com/MarekKnapek/mk_clib/tree/action_382

This is also an idea for Mounir as 风之暇想 mentioned: A standalone backup tool. That could be used to extract your data and back up it somewhere else.
