1You did backup the VeraCrypt volume, right? RIGHT?– GantendoCommented Apr 24, 2023 at 5:48

I’m not sure about your question? You mean I should have backed up a veracrypt volume on another hard drive? I am thinking that the 15 GB discrepancy may be due to the fact that there is data on the HD that is not showing up. I haven’t used this HD in some time. As you can see from the screenshot, I had installed a program called veracrypt which is used to encrypt data. Maybe there’s a Veracrypt volume or partition on the drive that contains data but for some error is not showing up? why is chkdsk showing a higher space usage than the one that comes up when I manually CTRL+A/properties?– Aussie aussieCommented Apr 24, 2023 at 8:31

Is there a way to understand whether there is any encrypted data on the hard drive? Perhaps the veracrypt volume has gone missing?– Aussie aussieCommented May 3, 2023 at 3:23

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
