    After I enter the decryption password it is accepted and it gets stuck on the next step where it says booting ...
    I have the drive installed as a secondary drive where I'm running a portable version of veracrypt (as the rescue disk is not working). How can I repair the problem in this situation? Using v 1.25.9. Thanks in advance.

    OK, I decrypted the entire drive in order to try fixing windows. How do I get rid of the Veracrpypt boot loader, so that I can have full access to a regular boot process?

    I pressed esp to bypass and it went through a couple of attempts, then Windows loaded. So I'll patch that up. But I need to encrypt this drive. If I go through that process again, via the installed version of Veracrypt am I going to run into boot problems after the ancryption? Is there a way to remove Veracrypt altogher and then start over from scratch? Like I did initially, when I first encrypted the drive?

    I guess I'll just open VC to the system men to perm decrypt system then uninstall
