<title>VeraCrypt - Free Open source disk encryption with strong security for the Paranoid</title>
<meta name="description" content="VeraCrypt is free open-source disk encryption software for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. In case an attacker forces you to reveal the password, VeraCrypt provides plausible deniability. In contrast to file encryption, data encryption performed by VeraCrypt is real-time (on-the-fly), automatic, transparent, needs very little memory, and does not involve temporary unencrypted files."/>

<h2>Default Mount Parameters</h2>
<p>Starting from version 1.0f-2, it is possible to specify the PRF algorithm and the TrueCrypt mode that will be selected by default in the password dialog.</p>
<p>As show below, select the entry &quot;Default Mount Parameters&quot; under the menu &quot;Settings&quot;:</p>
<p><img src="Home_VeraCrypt_menu_Default_Mount_Parameters.png" alt="Menu Default Mount Parameters"></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The following dialog will be displayed:</p>
<p><img src="Home_VeraCrypt_Default_Mount_Parameters.png" alt="Default Mount Parameters Dialog"></p>
<p>Make your modifications and then click OK.</p>
<p>The chosen values are then written to VeraCrypt main configuration file (Configuration.xml) making them persistent.</p>
<p>All subsequent password request dialogs will use the default values chosen previously. For example, if in the Default Mount Parameters dialog you check TrueCrypt Mode and you select SHA-512 as a PRF, then subsequent password dialogs will look like:<br>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> The default mount parameters can be overridden by the&nbsp;<a href="Command%20Line%20Usage.html">Command Line</a> switches
<strong>/tc</strong> and <strong>/hash</strong> which always take precedence.</p>
