It worked! Thanks SO much!

I think I got it....I went back and made sure nothing was selected in the upper drive box and then selected the partition, it seems to be decrypting. Fingers crossed...thanks!

Sorry if I'm being dense, but I want to make sure I do this right and don't screw it up! Here's what I'm seeing when I select device

Here's the VeraCrypt window showing my E drive was encrypted to M drive.

Thanks for replying. I did use VeraCrypt to to encrypt my drive and it worked.

I just read further instructions on VeraCrypt's Documentation/Help webpage about "If the Volume is Device Hosted" (which I assume mine is) and I don't see the 'New Partition’ or ‘New Simple Volume’ when I right-click the area representing the storage space of the encrypted device as per the instructions.

I encrypted my SSD (E) drive to an M drive so I could send my laptop in for repair. I got my laptop back and want to decrypt all the files (now on M Drive) back to the original E Drive location. When I highlight all the files in the encrypted M drive and try to move them to E, I get a pop-up error message that says: " Location is not available, E/: is not accessible, Parameter is incorrect."
