  • On some Windows machines, VeraCrypt may hang intermittently when mounting or dismounting a volume. Similar hanging may affect other running applications during veraCrypt mounting or dismounting operations. +This issue is caused by a conflict between VeraCrypt waiting dialog displayed during mount/dismount operations and other software installed on the machine (e.g. Outpost Firewall Pro). +In such situations, the issue can be solved by disabling VeraCrypt waiting dialog in the Preferences: use menu "Settings -> Preferences" and check the option "Don't show wait message dialog when performing operations". +
