Yes, when mounting a volume, there is a checkbox "TrueCrypt mode" on right side bottom, under password edit line. You can make it checked by default in settings.
This doesn't work properly. I have truecrypt file volumes created by truecrypt 7.1a that veracrypt is not able to decrypt.
I have no problems on 3 drives. Report issue maybe?
Thank you. I think it's time to switch over from TrueCrypt.
Test it first. It didn't work for me. Maybe because I also use keys not jus password but anyway I had to stick with truecrypt.
Well, that's good, Truecrypt mode worked for me. I'll start switching over now in Truecrypt mode, and eventually will create VeraCrypt volumes and move everything over.
This may be because they fixed the vulnerability with truecrypt keyfiles and didn't want to leave the vulnerable implementation around. Might want to report it and see what can be done.
Honestly I dont care. Truecrypt works great for me. My adversary is neither NSA nor FBI, so I can live with some small vulnerabilities. I installed Veracrypt, tried it with "Truecrypt compatibility" on and it didnt worked. This signals to me, that Veracrypt is not very much tested either, if they have bugs like this, they may also have bugs in crypto. So why shouold I trust it more? Truecrypt is proven by years of usage.
You're right, but the one catch is you sure shouldn't be using key files with it as they're one of the few things with known issues.
