veracrypt: Dismount a volume on the directory it is mounted to.

veracrypt

$ veracrypt --dismount ${path-to-mounted_point}

try on your machine

The command "veracrypt --dismount ${path-to-mounted_point}" is used to dismount or unmount a VeraCrypt volume or container from a specific mounted point.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

"veracrypt": This is the name of the command-line utility used to manage VeraCrypt volumes.
"--dismount": This is an option or parameter of the "veracrypt" command that instructs it to dismount a volume.
"${path-to-mounted_point}": This is a placeholder that represents the path or location of the mounted point or directory where the VeraCrypt volume is currently mounted. You need to replace "${path-to-mounted_point}" with the actual path on your system.

When you run this command with the correct path, it will tell the VeraCrypt utility to unmount the volume at the specified location. This ensures that the volume is no longer accessible or visible in your file explorer or any other system application. It is essential to dismount VeraCrypt volumes properly to protect your data and ensure its security.
