    hello
    i use veracrypt command line to create container
    But the container disappear immediately after creation - after 1-2 s
    run on windows 11 and it's happen with 1.26.7 and 1.26.15 version.

    Any Idea ?

    It would help if you posted your command line.

      thanks :)
      My command line :
      C:\Program Files\VeraCrypt\VeraCrypt Format.exe" /create c:\Data\DATA1.HH /password Mypassord /hash sha512 /encryption AES /hash sha-512 /filesystem exfat /size 50M /pim 0 /silent

    /size "50M" :)

    Some comments on your command line as it appears on the forum:
    Missing " at start of line
    /pim 0 irrelevant; can't set a pim with /create
    /encryption AES unnecessary; it's the default
    /hash is specified twice, unnecessarily
    Did C:\Data already exist?

    I can create a volume on C: from an Admin command prompt with:

    "veracrypt format.exe" /create C:\test\test /password test /hash sha512 /filesystem exfat /size 24m /silent
    

    if C: \test already exists, not otherwise. So, I can only reproduce your problem by trying to create C:\test on the fly.
    The folder containing the veracrypt executables is in my PATH, hnce shorthand for launching.
