When you create a whole partition on a USB Key, is your key still readeable by Windows ? Can I read the space who is not allowed to VeraCrypt? I always receive the message " THE DISK MUST BE FORATTED"
Merci
sorry
when the USB key is connected , Windows cry " the volume contains unknown file system and must be formatted"
But if I start VeraCrypt and connect to "Peripherique" an not to "Fichier ( file) It's work.....
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I think, you should distinguish between encrypted partition and encrypted device. To me, it seems that you encrypted the entire device despite a single partition. Now, it's common for Windows to complain about such devices, needing to initialize them. If you push the wrong button, you would damage the volume. That's why it's better for inexperienced users to use encrypted partitions instead.
