need to write to removable USB stick from within Hidden OS

[Dave Iam]

Help please!!!!

I have files in my hidden OS i need to move to another PC ... I have a USB stick for this, and Ive turned the entire drive into a standard Veracrypt partition. But when im in the Hidden OS and mount the USB it's always read-only! Even though i've mounted it and the entire drive is Veracrypted (so there's nothing to worry about re dataleaks), and the Mount Options don't have read-only checked.

While I understand not having read access to normal removables/USBs from Hidden OS, I need to be able to at least write to a Veracrypt-encrypted USB ... please tell me this is possible, otherwise how can I transfer my files???
Thanks

This limitation is documented: https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=VeraCrypt%20Hidden%20Operating%20System#data_leak_protection

In your case, the solution is easy: just create a hidden volume within the USB standard VeraCrypt volume. You can do that through the "Create Volume" wizard by choosing direct mode or you can re-encrypt the USB stick to follow the complete hidden volume creation process.

In the next version, an option will be added to allow writing data to removable disks and to normal volumes for those who know what they are doing.

Ahhh. I had already tried Standard File + Full Partition, so i presumed Hidden Volume would still be the same, but i'll go do that now. It's an unwanted extra step for what i need to do but at least I can move my files, that's all that matters!

Salam!

It is October 2017 now :)
I use VeraCrypt 1.21 x64 (Decoy and Hidden OS), but still can't write to Removable USB from the Hidden OS.
Conversely, I can write to MTP-device (Android phone) only from the Hidden OS.

I‘m not sure that I don't understand smthng?
Where is promised 2015'feature? For those who know what they are doing..

Thnx
