STEP 18:
Select the PRF algorithm that was used during the creation of the volume (SHA-512 is the default
PRF used by VeraCrypt). If you don’t remember which PRF was used, just leave it set to
“autodetection” but the mounting process will take more time. Click OK after entering the
password.
VeraCrypt will now attempt to mount the volume. If the password is incorrect (for example, if you
typed it incorrectly), VeraCrypt 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.
