Hello.
Yesterday I downloaded VeraCrypt, encrypted USB pendrive (with no data so far), I dismounted, mounted. Everything was working. Today i cant mount device, device is not ready (MountError:8382). I give good password for sure. Pendrive is visible to Windows, but with RAW filesystem.
I didn't create external backup of header volume. When I try to restore embedded header volume, I get:
Device is not ready.
Source: Restorevolumeheader 11293.
What can I do? I can't mount this pendrive, I can not format this, because Windows can not access this device.
I use the latest version of VeraCrypt.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Tomasz.

Did I waste new pendrive just by encrypting it by VeraCrypt?
