Hi, I never heard back from anyone on this. Now Windows 10 wants to update to version 1903, and I am pretty sure I can't without decrypting my system. Can anyone tell me if the latest version (beta or official) of Veracrypt will solve this problem? If yes, should I upgrade Veracrypt and then try updating Windows (without decrypting), or should I still decrypt my system, upgrade Windows, and then install the latest version of VC? As you can see above in this thread, previously I have had big problems...

Hi, I never heard back from anyone on this. Now Windows 10 wants to update to version 1903, and I am pretty sure I can't without decrypting my system. Can anyone tell me if the latest version (beta or official) of Truecrypt will solve this problem? If yes, should I upgrade Truecrypt and then try updating Windows (without decrypting), or should I still decrypt my system, upgrade Windows, and then install the latest version of TC?

Hi again, I don't mean to be pushy but I am still hoping for help solving this strange problem that prevents me from using any version after 1.19.

Hi Mounir, did you have time to think any more about my case?

There are 2 settings under Secure Boot: Enabled/disabled and Standard/Custom. I am attaching a screenshot of the custom settings. But I am sure that I have never changed any of these settings - I have only switched between enabled and disabled.

I really appreciate your continued patience with this - it is very strange. Just to explain in more detail what happened: After finishing the system encryption wizard and shutting down the PC, the PC started up, and I pressed Delete to open Bios settings. Here, I put the VeraCrypt bootloader first in the list of bootloaders with the Windows bootloader as no. 2 - I have found out that I have to do this because for some reason the VeraCrypt bootloader is always added to the list as no. 2 after the...

Hi again, I went through another attempt at encrypting my system. I got to the test restart, but then I could not get my PC to boot. I didn't even get the VC password prompt. My PC would shut down right after the manufacturer logo at the point where the VC password promt would normally be shown. It was a sort of "hard" shutdown that sounded as when you keep the On button pressed to force a pc to shut down if you know what I mean. I made sure that the VC bootloader was first in line in the BIOS (for...

I just ran your list of commands, and they worked. Just one thing: I had already installed VC 1.23 hotfix 2 before I ran your commands (to use with file containers). After running your list of commands and rebooting, I un- and reinstalled 1.23 hotfix 2 just to make sure that the installation is OK. Does this change anything, or should I be able to encrypt my system with 1.23 hotfix 2?
