Hi, my password is quiet long (about 25 chars) and i know the password but its like asdfjklöasdfjklö, so its extremely fast to type when saved in muscle memory. anyway, when i type that and i am too fast, keys are lost. i type (just as example) "asdf" and the "f" is not typed. i dont have those problems on LUKS. is this a known problem?

Please provide the following information in order for the VeraCrypt community members to help you.

Which OS and version?

Is the OS running latest patches released by OS vendor?

Which version of VeraCrypt?

Is the missing keystrokes occurring on the VeraCrypt bootloader screen and/or when mounting VeraCrypt volumes like partition encryption or file containers?

What is the make and model of PC?

Is the BIOS running latest firmware?
