Hello. I use VeraCrypt this way:

  1. Open the VeraCrypt GUI.
  2. Mount a container.
  3. Enter root password for mounting.

But I need an option for "emergency" dismounting all devices. I know there is "hotkeys" in Win version but I use it on Linux, Ubuntu 16.04. So I tried to run this command in console:
veracrypt -f -d
But it asks for root password to do this, despite it doesn't ask for the root password in GUI when "dismount all" has been clicked.

How can I make a system-wide hotkey dismounting all devices and not asking for the password? Thanx.
