#How to use veracrypt on windpws 7 how to
Do you guys know if Microsoft has fixed this or not, and is there a way to fix it? Also, I found out how to use a local account instead. It doesn't say that it was tested on Windows 8.1, so hopefully I'm safe. Well, I recently found out about an exploit that doesn't require a reboot: Is there any way to do so? Thanks!Įdited by CaveStoryKing64, 20 December 2016 - 03:24 PM. Because of this, I want to make a local account but keep all of the data that is in the Microsoft-linked account that I am currently using. Since I use a Microsoft account for my Windows login, and am paranoid, I assume that Microsoft has my passphrase on their servers. I was originally just going to use Syskey/BIOS Password, but these don't seem very secure either. Now, here are my requirements for encryption software. After 4 incorrect attempts, this is disabled and I have to enter my regular passphrase (it has infinite tries.)Īre there any methods in which these can be bypassed without restarting? Thanks! I also use a randomly generated (from ) 4-digit PIN for fast access so I don't have to type out my entire passphrase each time I want to sign-in. (I have a very secure passphrase made with diceware that I use nowhere else, and I don't want to have to turn off the computer every time I leave.) Upon reboot, however, if I have encryption, it will ask them for the decryption key, right? So, I should be able to just do Windows key + L and secure it. I know that is not very secure, and can be bypassed if you put in a special CD and reboot. Hello! I am very concerned about the security of the Windows login.
