I am using VeraCrypt for encrypting and decrypting my external drive.
What I want is to encrypt an external drive (ex . USB) using Windows command line and decrypt using Linux command line.
However, I cannot find a command on Windows machine to encrypt whole drive. While on Linux the command for encrypting whole drive is "veracrypt -t -c --volume-type=normal /dev/sdc1 --encryption=aes --hash=sha-256 --filesystem=FAT -p test --pim=0 -k "" --random-source=/dev/urandom". So, is there any similar command in Windows to do the same?
It is not (yet) possible to encrypt an entire device in Windows using VeraCrypt. Don't ask me why, it's just the way it is, atm.
