If it’s listed as an option, you should be able to select it and click OK. Maybe you can copy and paste here what you have in the autorun.inf file. Do you have the TrueCrypt software on the flash drive?

Thanks for your great tutorial.

I have followed it all the way through but have “fallen at the last fence”!!!!

Having followed the steps to set up the encryption on my memory stick it all looks great but on putting the memory stick back in it doesn’t give me the option of going straight into truecrypt.

The truecrypt icon comes up at the top but is not “clickable”.
There are then the usual options “open to view files” etc.

What am I doing wrong please?

Many thanks

Christine

I think some of them are you, but at least one looks like it might not be.

I’ve never done this, but there are USB drives on the market that already come with two partitions (one public, the other private). So it seems possible, but I’m not sure how they accomplish that. The problem you may run into is partitioning the USB drive and getting Windows to recognize both partitions and assigning drive letters to both. There are registry tweaks you can do to accomplish that as noted here, but that defeats the purpose of “traveler mode”. Need to investigate this one further.

Best I can figure is that there needs to be 2 partitions, 1 for the TC files and the 2nd which would be encrypted. The problem I’m having is when you set up the traveller mode to auto mount you need to point it to a file? Can this be set to the partition itself?

thanks

The TrueCrypt files are copied onto your removable hard drive, so you don’t need to install it on other computers.

How can i mount my encrypted drive/volume on some other computer with out the True crypt program running/installed on that machine? I am not clear on what you explained.
