I recently created a Veracrypt volume on a Drive that has windows 10 compression so I see those 2 blue arrow icon at the top right on the file. Today I tried to decompress the entire drive and it was hanging for a bit. Eventually all files and foldes got decompressed and didnt have the 2 blue arrows icon EXCEPT for my Veracrypt volume

I then tried to open it with Veracrypt and it said it cannot work on a compressed volume EVEN THOUGH it created it the first time and I've been pasting files into the volume. It provided the usual steps to decompress in windows.

Even if i choose this, nothing changes and i CANNOT open my Veracrypt volume, help please? Any ideas?

Additional info sorry! It says that this volume is currently in use by another program or a backup program. Seems I have now lost everything in this volume which sucks!
