    Hello and thank you for allowing me to waste your precious time,
    After two weeks of incessant work to recover files on my computer no longer booting, I managed to extract the only file I wanted, namely the volume of several tens of gigabytes VeraCrypt encrypted as a file.
    But now the file is probably corrupted and I don't know what to do. When I try to mount it, it displays an error and it shows that I have the wrong password or a wrong hash and etc..

    I set the default settings when creating the volume, I checked the shash, and I already tried to repair the VeraCrypt volume with the header repair tool in VeraCrypt. Can I get help please?

    Did you try to mount the volume using the option of embedded backup header which is written at the end of volume? The primary header is written at the beginning of the volume.

    Did you make an external header backup to a file? If yes, attempt to restore the header using this external backup file.

    If all of the above fail to mount the file container, there are no other options to fix the file container.
