The VeraCrypt Boot Loader requires at least 32 KibiBytes error for GPT

Open akucherk opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I can't use vera crypt with my GPT disk because of no space for veraCrypt boot loader error. I saw the disclaimer it is no bug and try to get free space, but unsuccesfully: 128 mb reserved partition at disk start can't be moved and free space before system partition didn't resolve the error. I found the topic where said this limitation is only for MBR disks and fixed in Update8, but links get 404. And I see update 8 for macos on veracrypt.fr site only. Is it possible to apply same fix and release for windows (and other systems)?

The topic I found: https://sourceforge.net/p/veracrypt/discussion/technical/thread/a7910fc5c6/?limit=25 I'm sorry if I misunderstood something and thanks for your time!
