Click 
OK 
in the password prompt window. 
TrueCrypt will now attempt to mount the volume. If the password is incorrect (for example, if you 
typed it incorrectly), TrueCrypt will notify you and you will need to repeat the previous step (type 
the password again and click 
OK
). If the password is correct, the volume will be mounted.

We have just successfully mounted the container as a virtual disk M: 
The virtual disk is entirely encrypted (including file names, allocation tables, free space, etc.) and 
behaves like a real disk. You can save (or copy, move, etc.) files to this virtual disk and they will be 
encrypted on the fly as they are being written. 
If you open a file stored on a TrueCrypt volume, for example, in media player, the file will be 
automatically decrypted to RAM (memory) on the fly while it is being read. 
Important: Note that when you open a file stored on a TrueCrypt volume (or when you write/copy a 
file to/from the TrueCrypt volume) you will not be asked to enter the password again. You need to 
enter the correct password only when mounting the volume. 
You can open the mounted volume, for example, by double-clicking the item marked with a red 
rectangle in the screenshot above. 
(Continued on the next page.)

You can also browse to the mounted volume the way you normally browse to any other types of 
volumes. For example, by opening the ‘
Computer
’ (or ‘
My Computer
’)
 
list and double clicking the 
corresponding drive letter (in this case, it is the letter M). 
You can copy files (or folders) to and from the TrueCrypt volume just as you would copy them to 
any normal disk (for example, by simple drag-and-drop operations). Files that are being read or 
copied from the encrypted TrueCrypt volume are automatically decrypted on the fly in RAM 
(memory). Similarly, files that are being written or copied to the TrueCrypt volume are automatically 
encrypted on the fly in RAM (right before they are written to the disk). 
Note that TrueCrypt never saves any decrypted data to a disk – it only stores them temporarily in 
RAM (memory). Even when the volume is mounted, data stored in the volume is still encrypted. 
When you restart Windows or turn off your computer, the volume will be dismounted and all files 
stored on it will be inaccessible (and encrypted). Even when power supply is suddenly interrupted 
(without proper system shut down), all files stored on the volume will be inaccessible (and 
encrypted). To make them accessible again, you have to mount the volume. To do so, repeat 
Steps 13-18. 
(Continued on the next page.) 


25 
If you want to close the volume and make files stored on it inaccessible, either restart your 
operating system or dismount the volume. To do so, follow these steps:
Select the volume from the list of mounted volumes in the main TrueCrypt window (marked with a 
red rectangle in the screenshot above) and then click
